This week, the ducks get to practice walking on the ice again, and more snow.
Let’s start with a couple pictures of most of the chickens in the new coop:
The ducks carefully walking on the frozen pond:

Mealworm treats on the frozen pond:
A bunch of crows in the field, making quite a racket; there were many more elsewhere on the field, too:

Chickens with some snow:

That’s probably going to be it for snow for this season, though it could snow again. It’s melting now, and will probably turn to rain over the coming week. Looks like the temperatures won’t be cold enough to freeze the pond either. It was fun while it lasted.
Wondering what the Sign above the door on the Duck House says.
It says “The Boonducks, est. 2019”. You can see it more clearly in this construction post: https://yellowcottagehomestead.com/2019/04/duck-house-hardware/
I love it! Thanks for the link also. The sign looks great! And what I thought was a second sign or a window turned out to be the door controller.
