Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Good morning everyone!

Rain on tap again for today - what a shocker.

Here are some snoozing fluffy butts. The chooks went outside and threw themselves down in the sun for a snooze

Oh dear. I am not sure I can cope with the hormonal insanity in the Chicken Palace.
Sylvie is a ditz. She has started the broody bok-bok-bok, but if I turf her out she stays off the nest for a reasonable time and sometimes seems to forget where she is. Piglet, Calypso and Tassels beat the crap out of her every time they see her.
Piglet is running around all puffed up and broody bok-bok-bok but hasn’t installed herself in a nest box. I think with Piglet the notion of skipping meals is probably quite unappealing.
I really only have three sane chickens. And here they are enjoying some peace and quiet while grazing in the cool of the morning.

Yep I got Hoovers both last year and a couple weeks ago.

Were your chicks day olds? If so they ship over night freight, did you get in Edmonton? They would be shipped to EDM airport and then Canada Post delivers to the store. They have a certain amt of chicks in each crate they ship them in to keep warm. I know you have had snow out there this week (and lots of it), so yes Peavey should take that into acct.

Have they setteled down any? I would say it’s the stores issue to ensure the product is kept safe and secure. If they didn’t then I would complain to their Customer Service about the issue.

I have 3 Midnights on order for 28th May, I don’t expect any issues.

According to Peavey, they are shipped from Hoovers to Ontario, and then to the store. Yes, they are day olds. I bought them in the Wetaskiwin Peavey Mart. Apparently that location is shutting down in July.

How are your chicks today?

Two died overnight, but no others. They seem to be getting better at not dying. Another one is looking like he'll pass soon.

Hmmm - lands in Pearson, then on again to Edmonton - a ‘milk run’ as they call it. Likely no direct flights from Hoovers departure location, to Edmonton.

Wetaskiwin is what 50min to the airport?

Well I sure hope your chickies are doing a bit better today.

Sorry to hear this.

It's one of my favorite Junapurr pictures, except for the dust on the chest and the floor.
