The flock made the best of it this week as temperatures rose just enough to cause flooding, then plummeted to record-breaking lows. Someone tell me spring is just around the corner?



There was flooding outside the coop, but the sand was mighty fine for dust bathing!

Not everyone had the luxury of a dust bath, however. Bertha, our new Partridge Cochin who is still in quarantine, needed a good ol’ water bath. She doesn’t look like she enjoyed it, but trust me, she did!

Another great give a way! I sure could use this egg basket. I can then throw away the plastic pail I use :) I love your blog with your all of your pictures, information, and wonderful recipes.
This would come in handy!! 6 eggs a day from 6 hens & 2 ducks!
I can use a new basket I'm using an old easter basket.
It would be great for the first eggs from my baby chicks to be gathered in this lovely basket!
Congratulations!!
