Turkey Eggs at -4ºF

I have been wondering when the wild easterns I have would start laying. Question answered. I went out to check on them this morning and had 2 frozen eggs in the pen. Temperature was -4ºF. The trigger is light, not temperature I have been told. I believe it now!

Stamp them all BUTTERBALL and they are right at home in the freezer!

We've been down to -25ºF this winter, infact in the past 36 days, the morning temps have been below zero and they are fine. I shovel snow into the pen and they eat it. I also have a heated dog dish for additional water and keep the feed coming and they have been just fine. The perch fell down a couple of months ago and I've left it down, read the best place in on straw on the ground rather than hanging their toes in to cold.
