[Duckfeet]

My babes are dealing with the snow here in New hampshire very well. I have them in a rabbit cage in the garage and go to them at least twice a day. The kids snow tube Santa left is great. Few times a week I fill with water and they have a swim.
The other day for the first time the three of them walked to the garage around 5p.m. as if to say.Get us in for the night. didn't have to round them up that day.

They are calling ducks. a husband and wife and a spare husband.

They have survived so far their first winter

Okay - this isn't a coop picture, but I couldn't resist sharing one of my Dark Campbell Duck's reaction to all the snow:

Anywho, my coops have about three feet of snow piled up around them from a combination of drifting, and my sweeping all the snow off the tops. My flight netting couldn't take the weight, and collapsed, taking a good chunk of the fencing down with it.

Good thing I was planning on redoing all of my fencing in the spring anyways.

about the 1/2 naked hubby in Keri78's picture. i was wondering if you rent him out to build coops dressed like that. i would like to watch him build my coop with his shirt off.

I think this spring when every thing starts thawing we'll need MUD pics! I like the snow but how
do you all deal with the thaw???

I cant get past that six pack..dont post pictures like that droolin

LMAO that was my first thought of the picture...I was like, WHAT coop! HEHE​

 

[Hangin Wit My Peeps]

But like everyone else has said, how DO you deal with so much??

Here when the weather gets cold enough we just walk over the top of the snow lol

Looks like his chickens are VERY warm in there...snow is a great insulator

I love that pic! It's hilarious!

But I'll admit my stupidity here, having never had ducks.............they have a tongue?

They sure do - if you go to a good, traditional Chinese restaurant, you can sometimes find fried duck tongue on the menu. I'm serious - look it up.
