IIIIIIIIIIIIt's Chicken Shit Sunday, with your favorite host...
...Cluuuuuuck Norris!
Today's episode: Cold as Shit
Now, the phrase "cold as shit" or "cold as balls" has always been cause for some frustration as both shit and balls should be just slightly cooler than body temperature. I can assure you it has been much colder than that outside here in the Ozarks lately. It is, in fact, colder than shit.
I wish I had more shit to share with you. The birds are allowed out of their enclosure during the afternoon and tucked safely away at night. At first Cluck Norris and his brother Phoenix tried sleeping on the top edge of their pen. After a couple of nights of being put into the coop, they have learned that the coop is warmer and safer and we haven't had any further problems...with that.
A problem we are having however...the shit in the coop is frozen to the floor and is preventing us from being able to clean properly. I'm afraid it will keep building up into shit stalagmites until the chickens just refuse to sleep in their coop! We are going to keep working on chipping away at the shit as much as we can until we get the coop back to a comfortable level of clean. I hope it isn't poking anyone in the tushie.
Thanks for stopping by! Any problems with keeping your coop clean during winter? Does your chicken shit freeze to things making it impossible to clean? Share your shit stories!
