I've had the pellet stove running all night. Baseboard heaters can't keep up. Suited up like it was the Arctic, to feed pigs and chickens. The pigs have been locked in their shed for two days with a radiant heater. The chickens won't eat in the coop, which also has a heater. I'm hoping no one dies.

I pulled two eggs out of the coop last night and they cracked as soon as they hit the cold air. Wild stuff. -12F when I woke up with a wind chill putting it at "feels like -35F."

Looking forward to the nearly 50F tomorrow.

My chickens also made it, boarded up and huddle mode. Have 2 (had 3, one got hawked I think) ducks that tend to go to a different coup, but they were lugged into the heat pumped workshop in a cat carrier for the night and likely until tomorrow am. Not much heat generated with only 2 of em, though they do have a light.

Funny about the eggs, we had a few days before eggs, and they made a divot in the ice on the ground without breaking, at all.

Hope your animals turned out okay! 38 ish maybe tomorrow -- maybe busting the Miata out!
