Snowing here, too. Not too impressive in the photo, but enlarge it. It’s blowing sideways from the north at 10mph, 32 degrees. That’s the high. At least it’s not sticking as threatened... yet. It’s still really cold and wet, tho. This is the kind of weather you’ll still be talking about in ten years.
I have 32+ chicks and poults coming Friday and they’re going in big totes because the geese can’t evacuate the stock tank. I took them outside on our one warmish day last week and they still haven’t forgiven me. The brown box with the blue tarp on top and the wheelbarrow holding it down? It’s surrounded by poultry netting. That’s where they spent the day. They didn’t think the shelter was quite upscale enough, so when the wind blew they refused to go in. They just hunkered down in the grass. I don’t think they’re very smart...
Off to the right, that pup tent thing... there are 24 Rangers and 4 BBWs in there. Also 4 heat lamps. I suppose they’d be growing faster if it weren’t so cold, but they seem to be doing okay.
