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!

When did we move to Alaska
I havet had my coffee yet now would be a good time to back up and walk away
The cold never bothered me anyway False I hate winter
Warning caffeine deprived and dangerous when provoked proceed at your own risk
Coffee saves lives just ask my family
Someone get my agent on the phone Frigid is not in my contract
Its a real shame that you cant drink coffee and sleep at the same time
Coffee prepare to meet your maker
I like to think my coffee needs me too

Meal worms are the best per the girls and the rooster. I am from CT originally and right now Kentucky feels like I am still there. I think the temperatures here have been colder than CT and the whole state is covered with snow which is rare. Broke a weather record everyday last week except Sunday. I hope we all make it to spring. -20 air temp is way too cold. I think the poor girls are starting to get frostbite on combs.

My girls (and boys) love mealworms! And welcome to the wonderful rollercoaster ride of life with a puppy! We too brought our newest family member home last month, it’s been six years since we last went through the joy of house training, 3am trips outdoors in sub zero temps, and happy puppy kisses. Worth every minute of it :) We have our now six year old Aussie to help raise our newest one, thank goodness! Enjoy:)
