I hope everyone is doing well. I am so over this garbage weather! I'm also over boiling water twice a day to get the ice out of the water bowls. My poor birds barely leave the coop in this crap and they are eating sooooo much!! I've been bringing them extra treats because I feel so bad that I can't bring them indoors. I've stuffed their coops with fresh straw and wrapped them in tarps. I've also made little ghetto doggy doors for the coops that the smarter girls have figured out. My evil RIR is snuggling up with the other birds, though, so at least something good came out of this!!
Also, just in case anyone is interested....I have a few kittens that I'm fostering for Nashville Cat Rescue. They'll be 10 weeks old on Tuesday and are super cute. They were spayed/neutered on Monday and have all of their shots except for rabies. They're indoor cats and the adoption fee is $100 each or 2 for $150. And......I adopted a couple Cornish Rex cats from a breeder (I think more of a "mill" situation, honestly) and when I took them in to get fixed, the vet said to hold off on the female because she may be pregnant. That was a few weeks ago and she's only gotten bigger. They should be here within the next few weeks and will be ready for adoption by May or so. These also are strictly indoor cats since they don't have much hair. I have homes already for two but I figured I'd put it out there.
