Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

[Xzryual]

I hate to say it but the brooder couldn't keep up and after a 4hr nap last night we lost 3 rare chicks to an 80° temp. Back above 90°, but cant get more. Power went out so limited on utilities. Hatcher is 98°. But my landlord said dont move em.

I said that backwards. Hatcher stuck at 90°, bc air outside the box is 50°. Met with my landlord who is in charge of everything and I can move them to safer place bc they are week babie chicks. Wooot! Back to chores hands warmed again. Le Fléché

I can hear plenty of dripping going on now. Still feels cold. Glad to see the snow go away!
I picked up one of those plastic igloo doghouses at a thrift store for the chickens to play with in the run, and today 2 of the Faverolles must have been in it when it started snowing this afternoon. When I went to lock up, one reluctantly decided to brave the white stuff and come in, the other just whined but refused to walk in the snow. So I had to pick her up and carry her royal self into the coop!
