From a chicken photography perspective, this week hasn’t been ideal, but we did see the sun briefly and I took advantage of it whenever possible. In between sub-zero temperatures and temps in the mid 50s, there was flooding, mud and general discontent. We’re all looking forward to the end of winter and brighter days ahead!

The week began with chickens foraging on frozen grass and lots of snow cover.

The middle of the week featured a warm-up and flooding like we’ve never seen before. It was decidedly a drag as I bailed out the basement as well as the chicken runs.

A little more thawing, a little more flooding.

And this is what the chicken run looked like in certain spots after the thaw re-froze.
Thanks for visiting and have a great week!

Hi, I love the idea of the Grandpa's feeder. I've a question though: do you have experience with using the Grandpa's feeder on grass or gravel? I'm wondering about the necessity of having a level area and nothing around that could roll under the step or it might not open???

Grandpa's feeder looks like a great product for keeping the girls happy and healthy with clean food. Thanks for sharing this product. If I don't win it I just may buy one !!!
