There isn’t much news in the chicken run at the moment which isn’t a bad thing. Things slow down at this time of the year. The days become shorter for the girls and when the weather is bad they spend time in the shelter.
Treats become the highlight of their day and give me a chance to take group photos. So this afternoon I gave the girls some yogurt.


A few hours later I collected the dishes and you would think that they had been licked clean. I love to see the girls enjoying a treat.

Good that they have a nice treat with all this freezing or wet weather.
Yes, I feel that they have a more boring life in winter when it’s wet and cold. At the moment they are all on the ladder where they have found a spot of sun.
They are looking good, Carol. After snow, we not have persistent rain and it’s not much fun for them. I’m still keeping them busy with the last of the pumpkins passed on by my grandchildren; they especially love the seeds.
Same here. One day of snow followed by several frosty days and then persistent rain. No pumpkins here but I remember how they loved the seeds in the past.
