A nice 14F at the moment. It was cold last week. "Cold" for me is less than -20C/-14F. That's when it starts getting bothersome, with exposed skin, electronics, vehicles (our snowmobile broke because of the cold, how ironic is that? Haha), the well etc.
We'll have a few days of ok temps, before a few more days of cold...
What I REALLY want is a monday-friday around 0C, warm enough for eggs to be shipped in the mail! I probably have to wait until March for the eggs I ordered in January to arrive.
Icelandic chickens! I got some Icelandic hens last year, and I love them, they're a lot of fun, naturally tame, not all the same color and very hardy. Therefore I decided to have only those and breed pure. I've always been a backyard mix'er, so breeding actual breeds is new to me. haha!
I specifically asked the breeder for eggs from rosecombs. Some of the hens I already have, have huge combs, very susceptible to frostbite. My goal is to breed a small-comb-only line.
