We could use some rain here, its been so dry. The rains lately has been hit or miss but most of it went either north or south of us.

No they are out in it. I used to lock them up, but now...well they can go in if they want. I did plug in the heat lamp again and I left it on today. I have babies and a momma out in the coop that are in smaller cages.

BTW it has just started sleeting here.

ETA:::

I just looked and my main laying flock is in their coop. The Orps are out, but their coop has a covered run.

Should I call USPS and give them the tracking number and see whats going on??? the BYCer send the eggs on wednesday and on the USPS website said that if they haven't arrived in 2 days to call them. but this is berly 2nd day, so should I call them?

 

[tazcat70]

Yes I would call the PO and see if they are there.


Sorry it looks like that part of the post got lost in the talk about the weather.

Ok so I see you are in Texas but what do you consider a blizzard? And isn't warm enough that is should melt in like a day or something. I do hope you get your chicks soon though.

Dang it hit 52 up here in northern Michigan today!

What did you Texans do to upset Mother Nature?
