An ugly rumor......

Good morning. First day of two days off for the children. They live near the deep purple vortex section of the map . The parents will go to work still. But brrr. I might get my mail and other bits sorted and head back home to ref and stay warm. Tend to my birds. Etc.

Another layer. Sunny Two has joined the foray. So 3 hens laying. It’s the red lamp I’ve turned on to keep them warm.

Will bolster the coop with more straw. I can’t find my electrolyte bag. I usually like doing that in the coop. I got them more grit the other day.
Loved the article on the egg laying song which is actually a ‘come escort me’ song. ( on the carousel / home page) Chicken behavior is by far my favorite part of the hobby. Not poop cleaning really.

Not only is it cold outside, I have to walk outside for one of my classes which is miserable, at least that building has heat now, and our lunch count was off by 8 people so 8 of us including me should not have gotten lunch, but it was only hot ham and cheese so they made some luke warm ones.

ILL, sorry your lunch wasn't so great

It's very cold, everyone should check in so we know you are warm indoors with a working furnace or woodstove!

Hoping everyone is ok. Just heard on the news that those kind of temps can damage lungs if you breath to deeply. And your eye corneas can freeze. So now I'm completely freaked out....

Reminds me of many years ago waiting for a bus after school and my contacts were freezing to my eyes, I had to keep squinting to keep the freezing air out. The bus never did show up so I had to choose between a ride with a stranger or freeze to death.

Wow. I've never experienced weather that cold. It's only in the 20's here & we all think we are dying.

 

[jerryse]

Ok here . We will likely break some records here

I am back home. I had to spend a day with the grandkids. School was closed but my Son and DIL had to work..

Colder than normal out there right now.

 

[MNChickMom]

Alive and well here.

As well as one can be when the spent some time outdoors chipping a Ritchie open and bedding steers ultra well. Putting corn out for poor pheasants and feeding watering my own chooks.

Moved 51 eggs to Hatcher...,though I’m certain the second they hatch they will crawl back inside their shells.
