12 hours is better then the 20 hours I used to sleep. yup, I was up for a total of 4 hours/day. glad to be able to be up with the sun and still up when it's dark. today was better, but I'm still tired, made some new pens, moved a few birds, I'll be ready for the swaps when they start up.

I moved a rooster to a new singles pen today and put chicks in his old pen, well tonight I went out to turn off the lights and he's in with about 20 silkie babies.

well that was not good, I went out to the coop- had to shovel a short but high drift to get inside, then go around back and shovel more, hands got really cold, so headed back to the house and just as I got inside I got so dizzy I thought I was going to pass out. thankfully the kids got me to the couch and warmed up. that would have been bad if it happened when I in the chicken run, they would not have found me or at least looked for me for a while.

glad you are ok, I always try to eat something before going out in the bad weather, being diabetic this way Im sure my sugar stays up there long enough. It was really cold tho. you use up more energy quick when it is cold like that. Take care
 
he didn't hurt them at all but then again, i don't know how long he'd been in there. the babies were all cuddled up at the end and he was in there with them standing up. if he's back tomorrow, I may have to switch them and give him his old pen back.
 
Woke up to 3 freshly hatched chicks, one more just made its way out. All hatchers were from Pollyc's beautifully colored eggs! Several other of her eggs have pips too. Going to be a fun day! Cant wait til all the daycare kiddos get here and they can come see.

I am happy that they are hatching. You should have a very bright egg basket when they grow up.
