Hey Mountain Peeps..is that a Golden Doodle? I bred my Golden twice with a Poodle, adorable pups, then dogs. Very smart is what I am being told. Willing to please, just like a Golden.

Hey Cynthia. Well it has gotten as cold as -14 degrees Celcius which is about 3 or 4 degrees F and I was quite worried about my babies, but they seemed ok because they have been climatizing very well and others have told me that they are pretty tough. I have decided that if it gets to 0 degrees F I may turn the heat lamp on for a little while at night to take the chill off. I don't want them to get use to it tho. I find it very trying raising chickens in our Canadian winter. I also shovel paths for them

I have to change my entire set up for the chickens in the spring. My coop and run are too small,, I can't get to the eggs very easily to gather them, but I guess that's how you learn but my poor chickens have suffered due to my ignorance . . . . . .I hope they recover all right

I also am thankful to the Lord for my 11 Barred Rocks, one cat, one dog, one husband (who has stuck around thru this chicken insanity) and soon to come "rabbits".

You should add that last paragraph to your the bottom of your page. Like the area I put mine in.
