Unrelenting, brutal cold and snow have been the name of the game here in New England the past month and there is no relief in sight. Nobody doubts the local meteorologist who said today that this has been the coldest month in Connecticut history. The weather is to blame for cabin fever in the chicken coops, but lots of exciting things are unfolding inside as we await some relief from the cold.

We welcomed a new member into our flock family just in time for my birthday this week: Milo, a 3 month old Yorkshire Terrier with an impressive pedigree, was escorted from South Carolina by his breeder to New York City, a short car ride from his forever home here in Connecticut! He walked into the house like he owned the joint and stole all of our hearts with his affectionate, playful personality. Please enjoy some of the photos taken since the last Flock Focus Friday!

Hey, another February-born chicken-keeper! Happy birthday! Hubby’s birthday was last week, and mine is Monday. *grins* Hope you special day is/was full of everything you need, and at least some of what you want! That’s a darling little new addition to the family you have there. Hope he’s a little gentleman with the chooks… and they’re nice to him, too. :-DThis is a nice giveaway for chickens like mine, lol – they get all sorts of treats so often that they’re disappointed when I only hand out layer crumbles for breakfast, and they have to wait until later for their… Read more »
