Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[bgmathteach]

No thirsty day pics today. Been working on craft projects. Both of my sisters are expecting child number 2. Gift for 1 already with them. For second, finished this yesterday.View attachment 3289742
Her DH's family also does lots of handicrafts, so she's overloaded with blankets. A softee seems about right.

Only nephew on my DH's side has baby arriving soon, so finished this for themView attachment 3289743Yes, that's a sea turtle. Her favorite colors are turquoise to aqua, so the waves fit. Debating about making a sea horse for it too.


Nosy beaks have been curious too.View attachment 3289744

Love it! You are so talented. Definitely a sea horse (just because I want to see how it turns out!).

Some of my embroidery for grandparents

Wow, you have a shoulder chicken AND a beautiful Lady on your arm!

She actually lay down on my arm and visited for a while. It was super sweet.

So am I. She was very pretty. I had a Buff Orpington named Daisy. She passed away just a tad bit over a year ago. I also placed her in a little box and buried her in my yard. But now, over a year later, I have a White Leghorn Pullet named Daisy. She is just like My first ever Daisy whom I got in 2013. She was also a leghorn. All 3 generations of Daisy I treasure in the Daisy Family tree in my heart. Pssst! She is my PFP! This photo of her I took a few months ago. I just edited the background. She is now laying eggs, and has been for about 2 months. And her comb is quite large, and goes flap, flap, flappy flap, as she runs about.

A white leghorn named Daisy. With a big comb you say. Seems right to me.

Meanwhile, Sansa is rolling over in her grave saying 'How humiliating, why did I get stuck with the bonnet?"

lovely !

It just fit her personality so well. How could I not give her the bonnet.

Ignoring the 10% rule
In spite of @BY Bob’s helpful visualization of the ‘only 10% treats’ rule I decided that getting any calories into Maggie was more important than ‘healthy eating’.
So I brought out the big guns.
Corn on the cob. As you can see, Maggie is obsessed with it.
I recorded it in SloMo but YouTube won’t show it in SloMo which is a real shame as on the original SloMo video there is some great swinging wattle action!

Edited to add. I figured out SloMo. Watch this instead.

This is great! I agree with getting her to eat anything. The 10% rule is off in these situations.

I hate blood sugar issues thought I was going to the hospital my blood sugar dropped so fast from 161, better now but tired.

I think YouTube added them. Nothing like that for real!

That is whatever sound was occurring at the time slowed way down. So if you were talking to Maggie, then that is your voice. I try to remain silent when taking slow motion videos for that reason.
