************************
What started out as a gorgeous but cold sunny day took a turn for the worst today when I discovered a Muscovy female in trouble, it was -24°C when I went outside this morning to take care of the ducks.
Absolutely everything is frozen after the warmer weather yesterday and everything melting anything that was wet yesterday is ice today.
I'm only 24-36 hours away from the barn being completed and ducks can move into their new home.
Only 12-14 ducks were outside this morning when I went out, most of them stayed in the shed.
It was only suppose to be -16°C last night so when I got up and the thermometer said -24°C I didn't have a good feeling with the windchill it was below -30ºC.
One of the Muscovy females obviously stayed outside last night because of the warmer weather and absolutely froze here feet, they were frostbite black this morning.
I set up the duck hospital in the back room of the house and got her inside quick and started the treatment process of slowly warming her feet up and getting some polysporin antibacterial cream on her open wounds.
When I let the ducks out of the shed later in the day when it warmed up to -13°C there was a feeding frenzy.
Because of the extreme weather warning we are getting I've got to pull all the stops out and get the barn done for the ducks, so today is going to be a long cold day for me.
Tonight it's going down to -26°C so I'm going to lock the ducks up and completely block the opening to hold the heat in the shed.
The Muscovy female's feet look a lot better 10 hours later, I'm going to have to keep her inside for the next week or so. ----------------------------------------------
