Pennsylvania!! Unite!!

my chickens are hating this crazy weather...yesterday 46 degrees...today 26 with very high wind gusts...only 4 are out so far today...the rest have chosen to stay in the coop...is it spring yet?
Ours are frustrated also. We are up on a ridge, and right now the wind is howling and blowing snow sideways...so they are still in the coop.
It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the wind. I would say easy 30mph gusts right now... the trees are whipping pretty good.
 
we are also on a ridge top...and the snow, tho just flurries right now, is blowing sideways...i agree...wouldn't be so bad if not for the wind. ugh
 
My chickens are on strike. The union steward is a real mother clucker. The are picketing for more roost space, padded floors with in floor heating, and fireplaces in every coop for ambiance as well as heat.
 
sally, was wondering how you were, glad you're still alive and kicking. hoping you feel better.

here too! Mine are all still in the coop. I went out and gave them fresh water and food and shut the door before the wind could pull it off!

Still working on finishing and moving my chicken coop out in the valley away from my neighbors. I'll have Golden Laced Wyandottes, Barred Plymouth Rocks and Rhode Island Reds.

I use to hang out in Punxy all the time when I went to college in Pittsburgh. LOL! How funny! I got my first tattoo in Duboise.
Progress of our Shed conversion to breeder pens and grow out pens.... larger pics are in my profile in family and pets We split the shed in half longwise with a simple 2x3 fram and that plastic chicken wire because its cheap. We made two breeder pens and 2 stacked grow out pens, which dont have doors or chickens yet. I wanted it this way so I had easy access to each pen without having to step in chicken poo to go from one into another pen, plus I have hanging storage and storage for straw and feed, etc. All doors will be unframed on the bottom so I can simply sweep pens out the door and right onto a tarp I can pull into woods compost pile without having to load it all up. Simply cleaning was on my mind BIG time. each pen has an outlet on the ceiling as well as a reg light on timers.... grow outs will have red heat lamps.. for now the nov hatch brahma are residing in the second breeder pen until I get set up. Each pen has cement block for beak scratching, water dishes, and feed, and book shelves made into nesting bxs.... Need to get a roost up for the cochin, but they seem to like that broken skid so I left it for now.... This is the view from the front doors..... the first pen opens up with the main door left side...... the middle pen has its own door. this is my light stenciled brahma gal, just had to take her pic she was so pretty this is a view with both front doors open cochin pen 2nd pen with my braham kiddos two grow out brooder areas stacked in the last "stall" work in progress oh and this here is Ruger, one of Maddys Pups born in sept.... one of my oldest sons kept him for those who arent on FB
Holy coolness momma! Love it!
