It's very chilly here, but I suppose winter had to come eventually! We were pretty lucky this year having warm weather as long as we did. Tuesday night Jamison FINALLY caught all of our chickens and put them in their winter coop...thank goodness! We had lost a couple of chickens over the past month from the cold and we hadn't gotten any eggs for a couple of months due to free range chickens hiding them and the dog stealing them. I hate putting so much money in to grain for "laying" hens and not getting any eggs, but I'm happy to say after putting them in the coop we got 1 egg last night! Hopefully now that they are confined and warmer we'll start to get a lot more eggs.

Now...if I could get him to finish my barn or at least get the barn door on, I could shut my does in the barn at night with a heat lamp. Two of them are ready to kid in the next 4 weeks and I really don't want to lose any of them because they kid out in the cold! You can bet if I wasn't pregnant I'd be up on a ladder with a hammer finishing the barn myself!
