My Great Pyrs turned themselves out (that's a story for the next blog) and have been on guard for about a week and have not bothered the chickens.
As I was walking down the steps this morning, the dogs ran by me barking. THEN I notice what they were barking at, crows on the ground near the chickens!!! They chased them off. I hope this translates to hawks.

WooHoo!
I get to go out today without five layers of clothing and serious dread of the cold and wind. It is sunny and warm at 40 degrees.
The last few days have been brutal for me. 80 degrees is the weather I am comfortable with. Besides the five layers of clothing, I am carrying water out to my animals, breaking ice in their waterers if I can. And wanting desperately for this to go quickly.
Amazingly my hens are laying so very well in this cold.
But today will be a pleasure.
