We made ourselves ready for the storm today.
The little birds ate and ate and ate.
The big ones did, too... I just didn't get a picture of the eating.
The deck waterer was busy all day, as this robin will attest... and I had to refill it with warm water literally four times, as it kept freezing on the top. Next year, we'll use a heated dog bowl, I think.
Some of us rested up for tomorrow.
I have a project in the laundry room... I'm fermenting grain for the chickens. (Backyard blend, chopped corn, pellets, and canned corn)
You can read about it HERE from Community Chickens, yesterday.
I put the critter cam in the henspa today, but I noticed that one of the old hens is scaring the bantams. When I went out, they all ran to the water and feed as soon as the big hens went outside. One came back in, and they all ran and hid again. I did not get any usable pictures, and frankly, with the weather coming, we're just going to hunker down and try to get through the next 48 hours safely.
And that's it for today from Calamity Acres! Hope to have pictures of the Snow that IS tomorrow for you!
