All of us at Fluffy Butt Acres wish everyone on BYC a happy and healthy New Year.
Phyllis is headed out to party hop tonight. She wants everyone to celebrate safely and be careful.
A Special Christmas Gift
I wanted to do something special for a dear friend of mind who has chickens. I was stumped trying to think of what I could do when I saw Mrs BY Bob's polish chicken ornaments I got her last year. For those that don't remember I got her 3 polish to commerate Phyllis Betty...
Hattie is 5!
Hattie is celebrating her 5th Hatchday today. I am passing this outside of the Fluffy Butt Acres thread so that anyone who has enjoyed her stories over the last 5 years can celebrate with her.
Hattie loves corn so to celebrate today everyone is enjoying a cracker barrel cornbread...
Ever since I was a small boy I have wanted to be a race car driver. Sadly it seems opportunities to do so never really came my way and my need to be responsible drove me to another career.
I figured I would never get a chance and then I purchased an amazing car, a 2018 Alfa Romeo Guilia...
It is Time to Celebrate
This Sunday we passed 10,000 pages and 100,000 posts at Fluffy Butt Acres. It has caused me to want to stop and celebrate. All of you tagged below on this thread have contributed at least 1 post that led us to that 100,000 post milestone. So I wanted to invite those...
The Results Are In
Every year we wait for a silly ground hog to predict the weather. And of course he is never correct.

Something seemed off with my lavender orpington, Hattie, this evening. I was watching her when she went to relieve herself she kind of squeaked and nothing came out. I scooped her up and this is what I found.
I do not know what i am looking at. I am alone this weekend and I have no...
Jabberwocky is an 11 month old Easter Egger rooster who is living with us in a development. We would keep him if it were not for the crowing. The neighbors have been tolerant but he needs a better place to live. He has been very good with his 3 hens, does not over use them, tidbits for them...
I have been wanting to do this for some time now. I knew once I started doing this there would be no going back. So I am now diving in and I hope you all enjoy coming along for the ride.
First of all let me tell you how we view our flock as that will help you to understand why we treat them...
I have a hen that is suddenly lethargic. She stopped laying 2 days ago. She has had watery stools on and off for 3 weeks. I assumed it was because of the high heat at the time. Starting yesterday she became lethargic and is not moving around much. Her craw was full last night just not as hard as...
It's funny how time flies. I bumped into this web site 2.5 years ago and thought "Well I'll give this a quick try. I'm not sure how I fell about this." I thought I poke around gather some info and move on. Why bother introducing yourself when you won't be around long.
