We have snow. About 5 inches right now and expect more tonight. The temperature is 0 and its freezing, far to cold. My chickens are all locked in the coop and have a light to keep them toasty warm. I worry about them getting frost bite on their combs.

His and Her's Chores


Sissy & Panda




Around here we split up the animal chores, his cows and my chickens. But since May he has a job that interferes with him doing his chores so I feed his cows. Now, Im not complaining I've really gotten to enjoy the cows and hanging out in the barn each day.



But when I first started feeding the cows it wasnt fun. I wondered where was the joy in this? Using a pitch fork was a hard way to get hay off a round bale. The bales were to large for me to roll some hay off. My arms hurt, my back hurt. It made me sweat and it was itchy.
Over the course of time Ive gotten stronger and figured out how to use that pitch fork and how to roll the hay. Often I find my self whistling a tune as I do the hay. Its know longer a hard chore to do and hay I kinda enjoy it!
