Chicken Run

The Uk has had it's heaviest snowfall in 18 years today.

And more forecast for tomorrow.
It has been minus 11 degrees centigrade here today.

But the sun was shining brightly.

We ventured out from our cottage in the forest.

First we walked the dogs. Although it was pretty, we also felt the cold.

So I think they were quite pleased to be in the car afterwards, in the warm.

Rufus is starting to doze here.

While we went to have a look at these ....

A fine looking rooster and his harem. Don't they look lovely in the sunshine?

And a gander (a male goose) amongst them all too!

Mike had arranged the visit so that we could get a good idea of what is entailed when keeping chickens.

We are hoping to get our own when the weather gets warmer.

Judging how cold it is now, that might be in while!
