There has been no more snowfall this very chilly day, and by chilly I mean a wind-chill of 14 degrees. Snow is on the ground, but no more snow in the forecast for now anyway. It's slippery out for sure. My lovely ladies have started to lay again, after a much shorter (but still long) molting hiatus, compared to last fall. They love their new coop. They have more room, more roosts, more light and more protection from the predators. It only took us 3 years to complete it ha ha! Photos to share soon. We are actually considering on keeping the old coop and using it for the actual "brooder" now. We'll be adding more ladies to the clan, so we'll figure that out sooner than later. I have not made all of our gardening plans for 2026, but I am putting in an order for some herb garden seeds. The rosemary and chive plants I brought indoors are still alive, but the rosemary is looking iffy (crossing my fingers, saying a prayer)....
