So sorry you guys keep getting hit with that cold weather! Brrr!

I ordered some of these (I think). The guy I get pullets from uses a couple hatcheries but these just showed up on his list for April so I will ask him when I pick them up and post pictures of the pullets. If my blue breasted brown rooster is still around when they’re ready I might breed him with them but that’s counting chickens before they hatch.

In about 4to 5 months, I’ll be back in the game. Looking to pick up some Leghorns.

Hatched 9 chicks this last hatch. A couple look possibly complete columbian so excited about that!

69° here, SE MO
Leg is giving me fits so I can't get out in it though.

70 here in west central Missouri! I’m sick as a dog unfortunately so I can’t enjoy it.

I hope you both get to feeling better so you can enjoy the nice weather!

Feeling pretty good now, probably at 80% and hopefully back up to 100% by the weekend!

Thanks! I did get out for a few minutes thes afternoon when my GC informed me that one of the Am pullets had an egg sticking halfway out. Took both of us to catch her. I have her in a crate in the LR now and have given her a calcium +D3 tablet. She's standing kind of huddled. But now I can't walk, lol. After dinner I will have DH help me give her an Epsom salt bath. (Will that really help?)

Negative 12 degrees here today. School on a delay so no one had to walk or wait for bus (hit above zero about 10am.)

We should break the freezing point at a balmy 35 closer to the weekend. I hope this is the end of it. Have one hen w frostbite on her comb. First one in 5 years. She doesn’t even have the biggest comb….if it wasn’t warming up I’d bring her in thhe garage for a few days.

I get seasonal depression as it is living here in KY! I would perish if our temps stayed that cold. I hate being indoors.
