We got our first real cold snap this past week. Temperatures dipped down into the 20s and the ground froze hard for the first time this winter. We got a beautiful snow that clung to the trees. Then we got 3 days of temperatures in the teens during the days with single digits at night and wind chill below zero. And last night came an ice storm that sadly broke some limbs off our pine tree. For winter poultry care - the ducks' bathing tub has been downsized to a tiny basin they can fit in one at a time that is easy to fill. Feeders and waterers are in a plastic hoop I built that I am hoping can double as a wee hoophouse for hardening off seedlings in the spring.
