I bought a bag of pelleted feed for Snowbird. He seems to be a bit perkier today. His beak doesn't look as raw as it did at first, so I'm hoping it isn't as painful now either.

We have a large bird (feathered feet farmyard hen) that was born with a distorted beak. Cindy trims it every now and then so it can eat. It grows back. I'm no expert but maybe that beak will grow back. Sort of like a fingernail?

Snowbird seems to be doing better. He pecks at food in the bowl and it doesn't seem to cause him pain.

My chicks are here! About 24 hours after I got the shipping email from Mt. Healthy, the Post Office called.

The top of my head might fall off, I'm grinning so widely.

It seems that I have a broody hen. My buff orp has been sitting on a clutch for several days now. It will probably be a wasted effort. I don't think my chanty roo is fertile. He hasn't been in the past. I also have a duck sitting on eggs but she only sits at night. It was last year on the day of CS@@ that she hatched 22. I hope she doesn't hatch any this year. I'm not sure Dreaamz would take them.

There is a frost/freeze warning for tonight. I'll be bringing in pots and baskets tonight. It looks to be a night for a fire and a movie.

Low of 42 forecast here. Now you're making me nervous...

DH texted me that he got a frost advisory text from WOOD TV for Belding for tonight.

Gotta cover everything back up. Good thing I decided to paint today instead of plant! All the pots are still safely in the dog crates and easy to cover.

Currently 44 at my house. Radio says low tonight of 31. I'm starting a fire right now. Brrr.

61 here... I'll have a fire in the wood stove tonight too.
