The temperature has reached almost 50 degrees today! (That’s 10 degrees for you Celsius users.) I decided to let the girls have an outing.

The hens in the big barn liked the mud, but refused to go on the snow. 

After a few moments scratching about, they went back into their very comfy spacious barn and took sunbaths in the shavings.

But, the girls in the HenCam barn hurried right out.

They went exploring.

And found their way to the one patch of green (over the septic system.)

As you can see, one day of 50 degree weather isn’t going to melt all of the snow that we have. But it has given the girls something of a mid-winter vacation.
