    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    Fiancé does not want cameras. I don’t care enough one way or the other to fight him on it. I work from home at least, so I do listen for them all day and try my best to go out there whenever possible. I watch them. At this point, I haven’t seen any abnormal issues with the gals, and none seem to...

    I’m not concerned unless they start hurting each other or Tim starts to target a certain pullet/hen or keeps them from getting to feed. Otherwise, it’s their problem to sort!

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    We have 12 hens. There was a good vibe before, and they shared the hens, although clearly Curiosity felt they were “his.” He would run over whenever they squawked resisting. They are the same age, from the same group of chicks. I will be watching to see if any of the girls gets overmated now. I...

    Yesterday was a big day here! We’ve had a changing of the guard. Curiosity and Tim went at it, and then Tim steamrolled Curiosity across the yard, and Curiosity slunk away. The rest of the day was constant crowing contests. Tim chased Curiosity more than once, and I observed Curiosity standing...

    Weird (hard) egg from Einstein today. Yesterday was her first since the molt (yes, in the tree, that’s how I know!), and that was was normal-ish but elongated and slightly pointy. This one is just…:eek: Its hardened and sealed but I probably won’t use it.

    He’s a wheaten Marans from a breeder friend. A bit too dusty in the breast for show apparently. But I think he’s perfect. And so sweet. Thanks!

    Einstein (BR in front) is getting her feathers back. The molt did get pretty bad. She’s actually a bit skinny under all that puffed up fluff! (Apologies for the cockerel on one leg 😂)
