No! But my daughter sure thought it was funny when she saw me run in the back door dripping wet. I think she's still chuckling about it.

Sure did! And me who doesn't even want to swim in the summer until the water gets up to 90 degrees!

South of the Olympic mountains, in Washington state. We got about half a foot here by end of yesterday. Chickens were not happy.

everyone ready for snow and christmas?

 

[oldchickenlady]

Nope, not ready for snow or Christmas. Snow I could handle...put a brace in the run to hold up the pvc hoops and I'm good! Now, Christmas is another matter...no presents bought yet, haven't even started, and have very few ideas!

I have tentative plans to either A). shop on Black Friday or B). go trail riding with my friends. I would rather ride with my friends, but the weather may not cooperate. If it doesn't then I will venture to do some shopping.

Hello Wildorchid, That is a lot of early snow isnt it? I used to live in Syracuse (Lyncourt) but do not miss those long cold winters. The chicken house looks lonely and frigate with all the snow, how are they taking it??

Looks, like your chicks are ready for winter. My thoughts are the chicks are inside playing cards. Nice coop by the way!!!!

And we were worried about our girls getting cold down here in NC!!! Snow does add a layer of insulation too, as I found out from my days snow holing in Norway in winter, but we were concerned that our Barred Rocks will get cold!!! I am adding some straw bales around the outside of the coop(north facing side) to take away the chill when it blows.....

But how many of you who have posted have unheated coops? Would be interesting to know..
