Well I was planning getting through everything today, being showered and ready for the Saints/Rams game. Never fails nothing goes right. Temp got up to 26 yesterday and today with bright sunny skies. Yep you guessed it, muddy mess. I get to the pregnant sow lot to feed and it was obvious I had missed one that needed washed and crated. She had 9 babies on the ground. 3 were ice cold but alive. So I shoved them in my coat and snatched the other 6 six up and put them in the cab of the Polaris. Told my wife to meet me at the shop with hot towels out of the shop dryer. Anyway, I just got mama settled in and all 9 babies back on her. Pic is of the 3 ice cold ones in hot towels with the blow dryer on them. Eventually they went back with the other 6 under radiant heat for a bit. Showered now and mixed a whiskey watching the game waiting on my chiefs to come on.
 
@daxigait I know you use tractor coops, and I just saw a genius idea!!
Run gap filler

It’s a draft guard for the chicken run! When the ground isn’t level, you just use one of these, and no one can escape! Also handy if you see a predator has been digging, and you just don’t have time to deal with it! You can let the dinosaurs out, and go to work. When you get home, you won’t have any birds to pull out of trees and bushes.
