What an amazing weekend! As crazy as it is that the whole country comes to a stand still when it snows, it makes it even more exciting doesn't it? There was such a buzz in our house on Thursday night with the anticipation of the arrival of the snow on Friday. I have to admit, I was the first to pull back the shutters on Friday morning in the hope that the garden would be covered in a blanket of white...it wasn't but we didn’t have to wait long and by 8am my three were already outside building a snowman.
So anyway, as we were snowed in I didn't manage to get over to the farm but I do have a funny clip to show you of my three lovely chickens - Fergie, after Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas, Gloria, after the hippo in Madagascar and Fatty Boom Boom, my gorgeous chick who in the summer gets very feathery and plump!
As they had never seen snow before, understandably they were rather nervous and actually even today, Fatty Boom Boom is still not leaving the chicken house! My brave chicken, Fergie, was the first to venture out but after about ten minutes she was back with the others, in the warmth of their roosting box! Watch the video for the full story!
Have a good week - enjoy the snow while it lasts and keep warm.
