First snow is scary stuff!

Our first snow is underway and for the Spring chicks it was scary stuff. They would not step in it, they jumped from thing to thing in the coop until they got to the ramp. At first I wasn't sure what was wrong with them but then I figured it out.



This poor Buff Orphington hen absolutely would not step on the snow and then she looked back at it as if it was lava in the coop! It was quite comical to watch as they maneuvered it. When we wake up tomorrow we are supposed to have at least a 1/2 a foot, this should get interesting.

They are also finding interesting ways to keep warm! As we move into winter, these young chicks are on a learning curve!
