The Starter House

Whatever. We give up. It's all about the baby now. And sometimes about the dogs. But mostly about the baby. (Once upon a time stuff: "After 2 1/2 years in our house and myriad renovations planned (and even some accomplished), it's time to start keeping track. And, if perhaps we're feeling motivated and if time allows, this will serve as a kitchen/garden journal as well. Here's to future bouts of nostalgia, poring over old photos, and keeping an eye out for botulism.")

Snow chickens!

Sadly it seems a lot of snow had been blowing into the coop. The chickens were not at all pleased about this, and were quite squawky when I took away the bucket they had been standing on. (On really cold days we take out a bucket full of hot water for a little extra heat. Otherwise they tend to just pile on top of each other - impressive when they're all sitting on the roost.) I added a bit more straw and E suggested some plastic over the window and door, so they should be nice and dry for now.
