We dropped to 32 this a.m. It was not as bad as forecast, thankfully, as the fruit trees are in full bloom. The next couple of days will be lucky to see 60F but the nights won’t go below 40. The chickens are finally heading out to the chicken tractor on Sunday...4 more weeks and they’ll be in the freezer. Late springs focus a lot growing into a short period resulting in more color. The Lilacs are having a banner year all across the northern midwest.
How old are your chickens when you process them? Around here they get ordered around easter and processed in September.
