They're Still Alive!


With our first accumulation of snow and some below freezing temperatures "the girls" hunkered down for their first winter in Brooklyn. I made some insulated panels to attach to the sides of the coop for a little added protection from the elements. The panels can removed come spring, but for now remain in place. Uno, the Araucana from south of the boarder, has been freeloading for months without an egg. Red, after her molting period, got right back in the saddle and turns out an egg a day.

Maybe Uno's done-o, a snowbird, failing at pushing egg-cicles out. Is there a plan B for a none producer? xxxooo Fran
