I am in the Caribou of B.C.. It is April 12th and it was snowing this morning then it turned to rain and later the sun came out. My chickens headed for the home when the snow was its heaviest and came out in the rain and snuggled down into straw to enjoy the sun.:D
The pine is coming back. I had to take some down when we first moved onto the property but I have some large pines that where missed and lots of small ones growing fast.
Well the Green house chicken run extension got finished just in time for our first snow fall.
As you can see they have now taken over the green house. We are planning to put more bedding material down some lights and a roosting area for them.
The green house is coming along. The hens have been been keeping an eye on the construction. Today was a warm 17 degrees celcius so we got a lot done, tomorrow walls will go up.
My husband panicked when one girl didn't come home to the coop last night. She is the smart one who is very resourceful in finding a way into our yard but she can't seem to figure out how to get back. I told him to think like a hen where would you go to get out of the elements and feel safe in...
The girls have their own compose pile to scratch through which doesn't mean they leave mine alone. We are adding on a green house which in the winter will give them added space.
