Ok, here are my stats for December 2012 & January 2013. I have 2 Easter Egger hens and 2 Jersey Giant hens. The temps are in celsius (I believe once the temp is below 0 degrees, it is the same as farenheit. Looking at my stats, I am wondering why I thought having JG's was a good idea! I appologize in advance for all the data I hope all of you great people don't roll your eyes!! I also included some snowy pictures just to give you an idea of our conditions (we have drifts of 6 feet in some spots).

Quote: Yes she can not get to the Chicken eggs but the Quail have a slide we are making them a pen using rabbit wire and it will be 6 x12 for the quail . but the chickens where the broken eggs this am i found the Villian. a Small wild Rabit using the nest box that the hens use at night to rest she scared me running out of the hen house . so from now on I open and close the door . i am leaving some Hay out for her in a nice warm area by the house she will be safe even from our dog,
