Chickens in the snow!!

Our Sebright cockerel in the snow this morning! The sebrights shot out of their coop whereas the silkies just looked about saying 'you must be joking' - until I offered porridge!!

Think we will use the first one as our Christmas card next year (we have tradition of using chicken photos for Christmas and easter cards) - bit odd to have taken it in april though!

Fab shots

Great idea for the Christmas card, the colours of the bird against the bluey white of Snow look fantastic

It looks superimposed onto the snow! What beautiful feathers! I do love it when people have a mix of different hens. Babe's set up is great I was like a kid in a sweet shop -whats that one, what's she called, etc etc

Lovely chooks! What fab pics! Was tempted to take a couple of photos of mine in the snow this morning but they looked a bit dirty against the pristine white. :?

What a beautiful bird! My silkies waddle out and get icicles all round their feathered feet! Unfortunately (?) it's sunny here and we've had no snow...there was a bit of sleety stuff but 5 minutes later sunshine again!

Enjoy your snow and sledging perhaps?!!

The silkies do get a bit 'hair gelled' looking in the damp weather bless them!
I have just got a pair of skis off frecycle (one of my best freecyclings) and was very tempted to try them out today!

We haven't had any snow, unless you count the 6 flakes this afternoon!!!
