It froze in the waterer last night and I had to chop ice this morning. All was well this afternoon though. It is pretty cozy in there actually. Just had to get some chicken shots. They are such characters. I found out fast that macro was not an option. They reach up and grab my hair if I get too close. I am including a couple shot of two of the roosters (I have 3). The golden one is a Buff Orpington and I have another one of them. The black one is an exotic mystery breed\u00c2\u00a0chicken. Guess I will have to get a book to figure out what breed he is. I have a little exotic breed hen that sort of matches him. He is my crowing rooster and is very loud. The hen is a Barred Rock and I have 8 of them. They are really nice chickens and good layers. I have 5 of the Buff Orpington hens too. I love chickens and it is so nice to have my chicken coop full again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-015.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4524\" title=\"snowchickens 015\" src=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-015-154x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"154\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-015-154x300.jpg 154w, http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-015.jpg 494w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 154px) 100vw, 154px\" \/><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0202.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4527\" title=\"snowchickens 020\" src=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0202-300x227.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0202-300x227.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0202.jpg 790w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-024.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4528\" title=\"snowchickens 024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-024-277x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"277\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-024-277x300.jpg 277w, http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-024.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 277px) 100vw, 277px\" \/><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0231.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4530\" title=\"snowchickens 023\" src=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0231-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0231-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0231-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.windowon.cherrypielane.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/snowchickens-0231.jpg 749w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday, December 20 &#8211; Just went to the chicken house to check on the water.
