I knew there was a chance of snow on Halloween..... but I certainly didn't expect 3 inches of heavy, wet snow this morning. Coop is not prepped for winter! I was expecting a light dusting, not REAL snow. I still have all those leaves to rake and need to move the little coop into the patio. I usually don't shut off & drain the hoses until mid Nov. This winter weather really caught me off guard. After all, we didn't wear coats just a few days ago.
Tree branches are dropping everywhere under the weight of the snow. Some snow has melted since 8am. Hoping most will be gone soon, so I can get out there.
Here are some pics from yesterday.
PR with her chicks
My lovely lav
Cupcake's molt is finishing up. Her basic feathers are in, just needs to fluff out a bit more.
A baby blue orp
I'm thinking this SLO is actually a blue SLO. Over time as she matures, her lacing is getting lighter.
This lav is molting - but what's unusual is that she's doing it slowly.
Millie is always getting into something. She also stalks me to see if I'm carrying any treats.
My rooster possibilities:
Mr Nice Guy (still nice - especially his comb, but not perfect)
Wonky. Love his body, hate his comb
Mr August is Mr Potential. He may end up being a compromise between the 2.
