This morning was the worst yet, minus 7,  and the flock is not doing so well. Warmed corn, bread and warm water, warming light in coop does not seem enough. Water was frozen this morning, that’s bad. Took off the pan between the light and the water. Hopefully that solves the problem

Martha has one point of her comb showing signs of frostbite I took her inside and sat her in  warm water and massaged her comb. Clara also showing spots. Do I take them into the basement and block them in one room? Egg cracked again. Read this is fairly common. I’ll take a look at the basement and see if this is possible. I’d hate for them to freeze when I can help them. We had them in this room as chicks, but back then they were small.

Rohan sleeping on my lap as I type. He can be such a marshmallow when he’s sleepy. he’s out like a light and snoring
