So yes, there are drawbacks to living in colder climates.

But on the flip side, some lucky chickens get to live indoors.

This happens more often than you’d think in our town.

Perhaps they’ve started a Union and are on strike?
“No pay?
No lay!”

We used to have chickens – they never did get the concept of “regular” lol

I’ve lobbied for backyard chickens for years.. to no avail. As much as my husband likes eggs, it’s a hard no.

Hate to tell you, but Maine is not in the North, merely north of most areas of the Eastern states. Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota are all north of Maine, not to mention Alaska, which is truly white this time of year. To try to usurp the moniker Great White North you are insulting almost every Canadian, and that is only in the Western Hemisphere. The Eastern hemisphere would just add on a whole host of other nations and peoples. On top of that, as a mass if land, Maine has no claim to being great. It is a piddly little area of land that would be swallowed up 38 other states. Maine may have a lot of things going for it, but the “great white north” is not one of them. (All tongue-in-cheek, of course.)

To most Americans, Maine is north. And speaking as a Mainer, it’s great as well. In winter? It’s great and white.
And I’m not at all biased in that opinion.

Too funny! I keep waiting for my newly-adopted New England town to show similar humor and spirit on the town FB page, but so far…no.
