A pat of alfalfa made all the hens and roos happy. There is ever vigilant Elvis.
Hens were curious when I pulled the ice from one of their water troughs. Peck, peck, peck at ice. Silly chickens.
Warm spring like weather the past few weeks tempted a creepy crawly to come out. No idea what crawled out the 2 inch hole but I'm guessing it's frozen now.
Gate watchers, only Chelsea is allowed to barn this morning. Too cold to keep track of others if they decide to run off. Tumbleweeds keep piling at this gate.
Horses staying in blankies all day. Wind chill is still around 27 degrees. The stalls have thick rubber mats but I sure wouldn't want to lay there without something to wrap up in.
Yikes I don't like that kind of cold either (we are having a warm spell in the 40s right now). The chickens pecking at the ice cracked me up!

Love lookin at the chickens... Happy New Year. We got some crazy weather going on everywhere!
