The snow has gone thanks to brief spell of rain and some slightly warmer weather. At least now we do not have to take water round to each paddock, we just have to break the ice so that the water underneath becomes accessable.
We are still feeding the weanlings as we feel that they are most vulnerable.
The fields were white with hoar frost this morning and it have been misty and cold and damp all day. Some of the alpacas with particularly hairy ears have bee decorated in white by the frost.
The chick and its mum are going out all day with the other chickens, although at the moment we still put them in a separate hutch at night. The chick is growing quickly but still has its baby yellow feathers.
