    What did you do in the garden today?

    It's been below freezing most of January, but now we're in a bit of a warm spell, Warming up during the days then freezing back over at night... It took a while, but the melt has gradually happened. The only ice and snow left now are patches that do not get much sun and of course the mounds of...

    🥶 Brrrrrrr! No wonder our road is still an ice sheet, several inches thick. Please melt...it does get above freezing after Thursday. I'm indoors a lot. Organizing my garden seeds, starting them soon.

    Official BYC Poll: What’s the most challenging part of chicken keeping for you during winter?

    Pop off caps...you just reminded me of the time Dad & I went to the grocery store in his 4x4 for a few items, a gallon of milk being 1 of them. He set the milk on top of the big console between us, for the ride home. I had a bag of groceries on my lap. I forget what made him hit the brakes, but...

    Official BYC Poll: What’s the most challenging part of chicken keeping for you during winter?

    I do love wildlife & I get many good photo opportunities but yeah...keeping the flock safe is priority. Knowing they're safe, give me a more positive perspective to appreciate nature's visitors. It's just a good thing we do not have Bobcats or Bears here.

    What are your frugal and sustainable tips and tricks?

    I take the tag. Peel it right off. Take that tag to the register with you. Tell them to print up a new Correct Tag. It is easy. If they cannot adjust the price then get a manager to do it, so a correct tag will be printed out. Takes mere minutes. Everything is computerized these days. But the...

    Official BYC Poll: What’s the most challenging part of chicken keeping for you during winter?

    I'd be singing a different tune if I hadn't used the half inch welded wire for the pens. We get the usual foxes, coyotes, raccoons, skunks, opossums, neighbors loose dogs, owls & rodents, but we have Many More Hawks than where I used to live. We are on the migratory hawk & bird flyway, so there...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Still have a lot of snow, even though it is melting. We did get over a foot. Garden is completely snowed in. Trash trucks still have not collected Friday's trash. Not sure if their truck broke down or it's due to the fact that our road never gets plowed. Anyway, here's tonight beautiful rising...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I tried Temu 1 time, figured give it a try. I needed a good garden vest & as I am petite most of the vests they make are too huge. Most times I ended up seeing something half decent under the fisherman vest category, but again they were huge. So...I get on the Temu site. I find & order 1 from...

    Official BYC Poll: What’s the most challenging part of chicken keeping for you during winter?

    Winter is a challenge for sure. My runs are not covered, which is not smart, but we hope to address that soon. The chickens do not care for snow & ice over 3 inches, so they'll stay in mostly. A few brave ones will make their way to the covered pet gazebos. Water heaters prevent water from...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Right before the snow started here, wild critters were also preparing. I have a fresh water bowl set out there daily. Birds visit it during the day, my rodent hunting fox, Little Girl visits & get a drink at night, & this dude, or dudette, visits around 6pmish lately. It really is funny how...
