Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

I appreciate the thought but no French autos for BY Bob. The Italians have my loyalty. They are works of art that perform like no other cars.

When I get hot, I go inside and watch YouTube ocean exploring videos!

Thirsty Thursday
I was delighted to catch this on the coop cam this morning. Minnie is out with the Hooligans and having a drink. I haven’t seen her really eat anything in a couple of days but I am relieved she is drinking.
Her tail is more up too and she isn’t huddled in a corner.
I did treat her with Revolution yesterday on the grounds that her worms may not have been properly treated previously as she got so sick after the Fenbendazole. Maybe it is having an effect.

I wonder also if the Hooligans are going to welcome her into their gang which would be quite a turn-up, but better than being all on her lonesome.
I know, I am putting a lot on one camera shot. I will spend real time with her today.

We all grieve differently and hopefully Minnie was just working through her loss. I pray this is so.

No no no. Don't buy an Italian copycat. They make better pizzas and better car. This is the best french luxury vehicle.

Of course since you will be paying a lot less than for a Bugatti I would suggest adding 8000 euros to change the wheels for Mavic Cosmic ultimate.

From my small experience with six hens I think there is no norm- six ex batts from the same place and six different molts, from done in two weeks to almost five months.

8,000 euros for wheels! I can buy 4 of these including tyres and rims, for less than that!

How much is the bike? I would love a really good French bicycle.

Hey got it! Thanks

Excellent! I learned that by accident.

I am back to worrying about her.

The only one molting (judging by the feathers on the floor) is Lulu.
And here is Lulu with her parasol.

And on a different topic has anyone seen this with pellets? The feeder is packed with a rim of incredible fine powder. Much finer than the powder that normally gets left at the bottom of a bag of pellets - the consistency of sifted flour for all you bakers. It is packed tight and stops the pellets coming out. I wonder if it could be because of the humidity.

The tail down is worrying. That doesn't seem a mood thing. Hoping for the best!

I get that with pellets. I sift out the crumbs first, then only pellets go inside the pan

Yes, I usually clean out the dust when I refill the feeder. I think the humidity has made it firm.

Yes. I have seen that. It a real problem with the chick crumble right now. I believe it is the humidity binding up the pellets. I try and clean it out as often as possible and therefore I putting less feed in the feeder.

So is it only us that aren’t allowed to make a fuss of your birthday?

Exactly.

You decide

I love that sound. Thankfully I get to enjoy it every morning. To me, the sounds of hens cackling and Roosters crowing are calming and peaceful. You know what drives me crazy? Dogs constantly barking, cars driving by with their music so loud pictures rattle on the wall or just loud car engines in general. I'm blessed to live in a Rural Area. To me living in a city would be torture.

As I typed this Branch is on the back steps singing the song of his people.

Exactly.

Some of my friends, didn’t get the memo about “not making a fuss” phone calls and memes all morning. (That’s Bobo lifting her foot)

I will sort of respect your wishes today.

Happy Un Birthday to you *thank you Alice in Wonderland*.
Now, go fry a steak, share with your chooks and bring in Jaffar and spend the day watching war movies.
