So...this is the third day in a row of straight rain. Its weird.
Where I live it usually doesn't rain like this at all.
My ducks just go out there and play in it. And they seem fine. They haven't gone under the shelters that I put up for them. (I don't understand why....) They don't act like they are in trouble or stressed out. And in fact I still see them playing.
I thought they wouldn't go in ...for awhile but would maybe at night at least. And they didn't. When i went to feed them the black ducks were pretty soaked looking, but seem to be fine. The fact that they were soaked worried me.
I'm curious what you other duck and chicken people do when there's extended periods of rain lasting a long time, with your animals? And any tricks to deal with this?
(Its not windy, but a little cold, but not yet snow or sleet, just straight rain.)
