Here it is almost noon, and still it's -11 degrees below zero.  I keep feeding my chicken warm, sloppy food, like oatmeal, in the hopes that this will keep her from freezing to death, but her beak has a frosty film over it where she breathes.  Right now, I'm cooking up some spaghetti strands for her, that I'll serve to her warm and wet.  It's useless to give her water - it freezes almost instantly.  It was about -25 deg. below zero last night.  Even I am full of aches and pains in this cold.  My nose freezes up and also runs in this weather, unlike our vehicles.  I hope everybody is staying inside and keeping warm.  Thank heavens we have our dry pine to burn.
