Chickens' First Snow

Snowy Coop


The Girls saw snow for the first time this past Monday. They had mixed feelings about the powdery white fluff that covered the ground of their chicken run.



Karana was the first Girl brave enough to take a peek, and the only one brave enough to venture outside.


 
One other Girl stuck her head out, but she would not join Karana for a winter walk.
 
 
Shortly after, Karana went back inside the hen house and that's where all the Girls stayed the rest of the day. It's going to be a very long winter for them if they don't get used to the snow. And this wasn't even much snow at all, just a dusting!
 
The snow came one day too late for our family, though. Instead of a snowy day for our annual Christmas tree farm visit, we had a rainy day. A dreary, chilled-to-the-bone kind of rainy day. At least the horses didn't mind giving us a ride. And the farm had a little shop where we could step inside to warm up and grab some yummy hot cocoa!
