Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

I am wondering if he wasn't intending to hurt you, but instead was rather awkwardly trying to establish a connection by trying to joke around.

Possibly, people have different ways of communicating in trying to establish a friendship. He needs to learn that he can upset people joking in such a way

I used neem oil on the perches and wood in the coop today. I left a gap in the door and secured the coop, just to make sure my babies are not upset with the smell

A mug for Monday.

I guessed Gucci because she just seems to prone to getting herself into situations she isn’t prepared for not unlike myself at times lol.

Question about this wee girls foot. Her toe is curved. She walks well and I have touched it and moved it around. It doesn’t at all seem to cause her issues or pain. I can straighten it but she holds it like that and walks with it like that. Is this something that I should be concerned about or no?

What is neem oil? I am intrigued. Is it similar in effect to white washing with ag lime or something else entirely?

Princess has always had a toe disfigurement but it hasn't ever bothered her

In The Drink

One of the Rascals just found the pool. Guess before looking. They did get themselves out.

Spoiler: Who got wet?

Somehow I figured it was her, she really seemed to kind of bumble around on that video with the cheeze-its. How did she get herself out? That is pretty amazing - did she go in at the steps?

Hoping she is okay - she is looking pretty miserable in the pic!

I know sugar is not good for us but sweeteners can cause so much more harm. Finally companies are making squash without these additives. Now I've just got myself a few bottles of the blackcurrant.

It prevents mites clinging to the perches and possibly other nasties. I'm hoping it's okay because I haven't used it before but a lot of chicken keepers swear by it.

You could not drag the the trunk out with a horse? I can't imagine packing logs on a horse.

There is still a horse logging company here in Oregon. There was a pbs spot about them.
