Whoever has been dreaming of a white christmas can stop now. It's enough. I have never in my life seen so much snow. Apparently on the 23rd a snow cell got stuck over our city and dumped 18 + inches over a 6 hour period. It is about a 10 mile radius that was affected. We are the middle. This is what I woke up to Yesterday morning.
I had to shovel a path to the coop, shovel open the door, knock the snow off the fence on the roof, and shovel a path to the water. I also put down shavings, since I am so nice.
The cluckers did not know what to think.
They enjoyed their oatmeal, and still laid me two eggs! I have been getting two eggs a day everyday since the 13th, except today, when I got THREE!! It's a christmas miracle, 3 EGGS! I have 4 squatting, all three Isa Browns, and Patty the Barred Rock squat whenever I come near them. We got about 4 more inches of snow today, but the shoveling wasn't so hard this time.
Overall, it was a great day, I got an Ecobrooder for the upcoming spring, and the incredible Egg Scale, which we weighed all our eggs on today. (They were mostly medium, one large)
Merry Christmas!
