Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[CrazyChookChookLady]

That is quite a difference from us. 30 miles made a big difference in totals.

We had no mix, it was all solid snow and a LOT of it.

So much snow!

I haven't had my ruler out yet, but the snow is more then half a lab high!!

There is a table next to the rose bushes. You can see the snow piled up on that.

"Half a Lab high"

We had no mix, it was all solid snow and a LOT of it.

We had snow, then sleet and snow, then around 6 or so it stopped, and then by 10 pm it was sleeting again, and this morning when we got up we had gotten maybe 3 more inches of fluffy snow with a crust on top. It was pretty windy here so it has drifted a bit too.

That is correct. Hattie is also an orpington, color lavender.

I knew that! I got Orpingtons nailed (well at least buff and lavender, not sure if there are other colors).

This is not real snowfall. Just what drifted into the runs. Not a chicken to be seen. Sensible ladies are keeping their feet nice and dry inside.

I love the strategy of eating out of the top of the food bucket!

They need to be careful of that.. a friend of mine lost a most gorgeous and sweet rooster by doing that and falling in head first, getting trapped and suffocating

We got about 9 inches. It's still only 17 degrees here! I decided not let my chickens out into their uncovered run bc I was afraid they'd get stuck they aren't fond of snow anyway.View attachment 2452748
