But the garage is heated too, should you wish to sleep in a car.<br /><br />Barbara, it really has warmed up, although fortunately the freezing rain missed us. DId you get the flash freeze? We are supposed to get some snow tonight. Love your Tom cat story.Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-72661335985593732432011-01-18T17:09:58.117-05:002011-01-18T17:09:58.117-05:00CogDis, I figure it's the least I can do when ...CogDis, I figure it's the least I can do when I'm stealing (and eating) their unborn children every day! ;)<br /><br />Ahab, it's not hard to get chickadees to eat from your hand although it takes a little patience. It's even easier when it's bitterly cold and two dogs are sitting under the birdfeeder. Makes my outstretched hand seem more appealing. :)Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-4356422837937402642011-01-18T08:07:00.185-05:002011-01-18T08:07:00.185-05:00Should be much warmer this a.m. for both the girls...Should be much warmer this a.m. for both the girls and all of us I love raspberries and oatmeal - those are very lucky hens! We used to have an old Tom cat we built a cat house for that was heated with a light bulb - while the water never froze, on days like that my husband just wanted to gather him up and hustle him into the house by the rads.Barbarapchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09990013417063903768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-12684483686565892772011-01-18T01:54:08.572-05:002011-01-18T01:54:08.572-05:00You have a guest room in the hen-house?You have a guest room in the hen-house?CalumCarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18069686044236255387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-51175264019289541282011-01-17T23:27:11.312-05:002011-01-17T23:27:11.312-05:00-30!!!!

Central heating is good in January!<br /><br />John, I think damp cold is so much worse than dry cold. LIving in British Columbia drove me nuts because I was always cold and damp, even though the temps were usually above freezing. It reminded me of England! I like snow and cold and drier air.Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-47322367162684791742011-01-17T16:56:18.406-05:002011-01-17T16:56:18.406-05:00Little Blue Mouse, it's the kind of cold that ...Little Blue Mouse, it's the kind of cold that takes your breath away. The coldest I have experienced is -40C (which is the same in Fahrenheit!) but Gordon (hubby) has been to Yellowknife up north and it was somewhere around -50 Celsius, which just sounds painful.Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-15633437586723003782011-01-17T14:31:06.559-05:002011-01-17T14:31:06.559-05:00my british hens have to put up with more rain that...my british hens have to put up with more rain that is good for them<br />cold chickens HATE the rain!John Going Gentlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14958171262765033946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-78593314591520169172011-01-17T14:10:31.175-05:002011-01-17T14:10:31.175-05:00Can I come and stay with your chickens?
