Here in Northern Connecticut, we have had an unusually snow-free winter, for which my flock and I are tremendously grateful. But, after 60°F temperatures on Thursday, we were treated to 8″ of snow and temps in the teens. As Hartford native, Mark Twain once said of New England: “if you don’t like the weather, wait a minute.” Please enjoy the photos.

Oh this would be VERY welcome! It’s been less than freezing in Manchester, CT. Despite applications of petroleum jelly, my hens are getting frostbitten! I have an extremely dangerous (to me) heat lamp but I’d much rather use something like this!

I agree about the weather. This weekend we are having temps in the mid 50’s but they’re calling for ice or snow Monday. My poor animals don’t know what to think. I would love to win this giveaway. Of course, you always have great prizes. Hope everyone has a great week.
