I love snow....but hate the cold.

In my thinking, if it is going to be cold, it needs to snow. I have no use for below freezing temps if there is no snow.

I agree. Although the thought of stomping back to the coop through a foot+ of snow makes me rethink that theory. I feel like if it's going to snow it either needs to be a light coating that easily scrapes off my car, or so much snow that school and my work are closed. And I just realized I need to get my snow scraper out of the trunk of my car tonight. & crossing my fingers it's not under the bale of straw I've been storing in my trunk.

Well HAPPY Late Birthday!!!!

All you people and your 62 degrees .

I got up to at least 4 inches of the S word. AND it is still falling. The forecast was on target in the morning yesterday. The evening forecast was WAY off. I left the sides of the hoop run up and now may have to shovel it out too.

I am going to finish my coffee then gear up to shovel me a path to the birds.

I will get a couple of pictures for you warm weather folks so you can see what yer missing.

My husband said where they need to hunt the snow is waist deep and no way to get the animals out. Sounds like his week is pretty much a bust.

We might have to trade some eggs one day I've been interested in wheaten Ameraucana

I don't have a Wheaten rooster. If you want Wheaten Ameraucana crossed with Swedish Flower you're in luck.

BITE YOUR TONGUE!!!

I'm ok with some snow but feet at a time is too much. Being an Ohioan I think we have a good weather mix.
We get a mild earthquake every 20 years or so. Tornados every 8-10 years. No hurricanes or haboobs. There are definitely places that get more snow too so I try not to complain. But boy is it hard not to sometimes!

NOOOOOOO!!!!! I STOPPED GETTING NOTIFICATIONS

Eek, how far behind are you? I look at my watched threads to see what I'm missing. Alerts are too unreliable and don't update after the first time.

Loved his little booty!!!!

I've never dealt with peat moss..... it literally killed me to see our sawdust order was $250!!... lemme say that again.... saw.. DUST... the stuff that's made from cutting wood... made from chewed up wood scraps.... was $250!!!

So, I'm pretty much gonna be MIA this morning..... I really need to get some things completed indoors while it is rainy and wet and cold outside. moist balls

PS. Here's my incubating eggs! We're currently on day 12. Just did a 2nd candling last night and we have 8 with DEFINITE movement!

Not to bad but .

The second pic is the top of the hoop run showing how much piled up there.

Well the girls heard me so are grumbling wanting out. Time to shovel. The big run has no real snow protection so I gotta clear that too.

Oh my!!! That doesn’t look fun at all!!! I heard today is our last day in the 70’s!!

I know... I forgot... I'm in the play at my school, and school is killing me, and my siblings are crazy, and...I'm about a hundred pages behind.
