Alaska Chicken Lover's Soup for the Cold!!

[Wolfwoman]

Mrs. AK-Bird-Brain :

I still need to get a couple of silkies to Donna in Chickaloon... Aimee, did you still want #1? Or shall we all just wait now, since it's SNOWING up there...

Good question at this point... our truck is only 2WD so we won't be making any long trips if this continues!​

I don't expect this will stick. That north wind chilled the air down but should warm up some on more time. I hope! Glad that everyone has power again. We are on the end of a loop Bonnie. They got the main lines going first... We got it back a long time after you did...

I guess we'll have to see how long this weather system goes on. It's 2 weeks early for sticking snow here.. Even for us

Does anyone in Anchorage or the valley have eggs for sale? I have a friend in Girdwood that will buy all you have for $3-$4 a dozen (depending on size, I have mostly small pullet eggs now, so she gets less for them.) I'm going down there tomorrow, so let me know ASAP if you have any or know of anyone that does.

Mrs. AK-Bird-Brain :

OK, Steph's got dibs!

Aimee, I'm sorry to have to tell you that I lost the little splash silkie you picked out... we had a bit of a cold snap, and she wound up at the bottom of the pile.

I do have the other one still, but I'm pretty sure it's a boy. Do I need an excuse to hatch a few more of Lisa's eggs, or shall we just wait til spring? I'm sorry...

sorry to hear that​

I am working on nesting boxes today Bonnie, wet or no wet..... This is way too soon for this!
I am sorry about the silkie Tori! I always worry about that when it's cold, since you told me about it....

It does seem soon! I hope you are at least working inside the coop on them!

When did you want to rent Endeavor for your WCBP girl? Maybe she won't rip his head feathers out!

Tori!
