FFF Photo a Day - Day 18
Mid- January on the prairies and all living things are waiting for spring.
Here you can see our chicken tractors (movable chicken shelters) empty and half buried in snow.
In the warm months we use these shelters (which simply slide along the grass) to protect the chickens from predators while still providing them with daily fresh pasture to feed on.
In the winter we line the tractors up along the tree line and put them up on blocks to ensure they don't get stuck in the ice during the spring freeze and thaw cycle.
