The Micro.blog challenge word for day 17 is “train”. The chickens have been trained to come running when I approach the chicken run on my morning rounds, to receive their leafy treats. 📷🐓 #mbnov

It’s still below freezing overnight, so unsurprisingly the waterers in the chicken runs are frozen, with some nice icicles. (Don’t worry, they have heated waterers inside the coops.) 🐓❄️
