Today was another beautiful day. The weatherman says the temps will plummet after midnight tonight, so I spent most of the afternoon make the chicken habitat comfy for the girls.
I bought a heater and installed it in the coop. Most people say that cold weather doesn't affect them like it does other critters, but I'm not sure how they know. To be on the safe side, I made it a little more cozy for them.
I also did maintenance on the beehives making them ready for colder weather. They have eaten almost 20 pounds of sugar these last few days. When I hefted the back of the hives, they were all heavy which means they should have enough honey to get them through the winter.
Jilda wasn't feeling well this evening, so I taught her Monday night yoga class. One of the newbies asked how much I knew about yoga. I told her that I was a certified yoga instructor...but I'm mostly a substitute for Jilda when she needs me to teach.
Y'all stay warm.

I'm sure you know your yoga, but I'd ask for a refund or at least a discount!
ReplyDeleteIt’s a tips only class. I made $40 mister. I think I’ll wear yoga pants next time to see if I get more tips:)
DeleteOur temperatures have plummetted. The good news is that we are supposed to be above freezing tomorrow. It's good to warn the coop. If the chickens bunch together trying to keep warm somebody might be crushed.
ReplyDeleteGoodness but that was a rather off-putting remark, wasn't it? I love how you care for the chickens' comfort!
ReplyDeleteJoe is from “Up North” if you know what I mean :)
DeleteHe’s a guitar picker so I cut him some slack :)
I didn't realized you were a certified yoga instructor too. So glad you could fill in for Jllda and hope she feels better soon!
ReplyDeleteSure hope Jilda is feeling better but I'm sure you did a good job. I didn't know you were an instructor too. Do you have any trouble doing yoga with your new knee? Just asking for a friend..hehe!
ReplyDeleteFar from cold here
