    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    Ha! My Flower Hen rooster never dances, he relys solely on tidbitting to woo the girls. Pebble on the other hand, oh my he really dances. Spreads his wings, goes sideways in a wide circle, its hilarious and cute. It would be even cuter if he didn't headbutt people, yes you read that right. He...

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    Some pics of adjustments to the coop I have made: The bantams have their own feeder now and a new waterer with a heater added for winter. Currently they are both inside the coop for winter and to ensure the littles have options. We also got a new automatic door for Omlet, it sends updates to...

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    I get it, I do! The crew I had before would tear through their feed at an alarming pace for such small creatures lol, especially the Orpingtons. The flowers and the wee bantams just don’t eat nearly as much. I think I saw the commercial term of feed to production ratio mentioned a few times and...

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    I think if she is crossed with a bantam then the Myers rep is technically correct she isn’t a bantam however she could still end up bantam sized, just depends on how the genetics show themselves. I remember a lady on Tik Tok (also on you tube) she did lots of really good chicken education...

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    I hope it is just a case of “chickens are weird sometimes”. She does seem to be beautifully healthy and completely aware of her surroundings. I also agree she does seem to have little trouble seeing. Maybe she thought she was hungry then just decided she wasn’t? Goodness she is a cute little...

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    I did the same thing. I found this thread shortly after having surgery to repair an ankle I had broken going down a kids slide with my son. I was waiting on my very first chicks to arrive and had not much else to do being laid up and I made way from the beginning all the way through. This...

    My girls do the same thing. The roosters will do all the things in their playbook but the hens just pretend it didn’t happen and walk the other way 🤣 What’s a guy gotta do???

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    Yes, this is what I have done too! I really need to get some video and or pictures of what I did. The electric company cut down some big ol’ trees on our property and I commandeered the free logs for the run. I took down all the roosts in the old coop and it’s now an extension to the run. To...

    Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

    I am partial to land race breeds, all the colors one breed :) I’ll admit that I am quite tempted to go with these guys to bridge the gap. They sound like smaller versions of my SFH’s in personality and they lay blue green eggs 🪺. Oh she is so pretty, I do love her and her feathered toes. I...
