What did you do in the garden today?

Our Snow dog has always been on the screen porch.
She has her pups there it is 25 here right now.
I would not have had pups out. Also had them sold before I would breed a litter.
There was no plan with this litter and we have 5.

I am worried about the newborn kits... Even though I keep telling myself they will be fine. She had them in the orange tub you see in the picture. It was packed with hay and she pulled a decent amount of fur, from the quick look I had. She blocked the entrance with dirt... I assume to keep them warmer. The pen is blocked from the wind on the north and west sides.... And the entire run is covered with a heavy duty tarp (provided it doesn't rip under snow weight). The downside of this setup is that I can't really add a heat lamp. I thought about a heating pad on low but afraid the adult buns might chew it or the cord...or that it will trip a breaker with all the de-icers and they will get chilled more easily.

This is our temperature outlook...

I guess I just gotta wait it out and see what happens.

I hope they're all okay. I have been seeing a lot of stuff about the storms that are set to hit this weekend and it's not going to be good for anyone.

I pulled the last three daikon radishes out of the garden. The largest root was about 6 inches long and 1.5 inches in diameter, and tasted no different to me than a regular red radish. Chickens got the tops.
