I'm afraid I am a victim of identity theft...

Shouldn't leave your social security number on your bedside table if you wanted to remain the only Holm.

I guess I should lock the doors from now on... And pick up some Canuck-be-gone....

Another dusting to an inch here. Calm winds. If we get the wind predicted it could impact travel as the roads were not the greatest this morning.

We have the winds predicted now. brrrrr and I was going to Gilman for lunch today.

I believe you are correct. It appears a Nigerian Prince living on an ice floe in a foreign nation has taken over your ID.

@R2elk this is my version of your waterer... So far it's worked good but we haven't had any issues with frozen waterers for awhile... But we are going to hit -7 next week so we will see how much ice we get...

Lacing on that one looks nicer than some of your others. Really pretty.

Yes it is! She has better lacing then my other 2 blue females, but lighter color. I took the picture this morning so she looks darker then she actually is. Its a step forward though!!

Has anyone had issues with Frostbite yet?

Has anyone had issues with Frostbite yet?

I predict I will next week. I am tired of chiseling ice out of the rooster's waterer. So I may bite the bullet and get them a heated dog waterer.....but that means wet cold wattles and knowing my boys they will figure out how to get their combs wet too.

I make sure the boys combs and wattkes are dry before bed and then I put a coating of Vaseline on them and have not had any issues. I switched my feeders and waterers over to those rubber 2 quart black tubs and they don't seem to freeze as bad.
