    My ten hens made it through the winter, they are happily ranging all over the property, favorite spots are the wood pile, and along the creek. The mean rooster ended up as a nice tender rooster dish, after simmering with herbs and spices for three hours in a wine broth. We have little Barney the...

    They were in a barn. i put them in a dog kennel outside during the day. We bought a coop for the six of them so they wouldn't have to be with the older birds right off. I am actually building a bigger coop if we ever lose all of the snow. I put shavings in the bottom of the coop for them to nest in.

    My RIR rooster seems to be doing better. I take my little weeding rake with me when I go visit. It is one of those little curved rakes, the bowl of it easily holds an egg if one needs to be fished out of the back of a coop. It can also be used to nudge a rooster. No more attack issues, when I...
