Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

Success! Maybe homemade bread with whole grains in it made the difference? Soaked two small pieces, mushed them each a bit to compact them, and had them on a piece of plastic wrap along with the half calcium pill in front of Peanut in her towel burrito.

I had been giving them each some walnuts from a little plastic bag to lure them into the run and get Peanut alone. Suddenly she picked up the calcium pill herself, beaked it around and dropped it. What a disappointment that must have been! Sorry, Peanut. Then I picked up the bread and offered it and she scarfed both right down. Yummy!At least until

Getting the calcium pill into her was the trial today, she’d decided that’s not food and it took four attempts because it got a bit sticky. But afterward she got three more walnut bits very happily. I opened the burrito and swung around toward the lilac bush where everyone else was and she flew off, landed, paused to ruffle and ran toward them. So I think she’s okay. I’m okay too.
Thanks everyone here too for your support, it means a lot to me!

Wonderful!

Saturday Lime day even though its Friday. They sent sunglasses as a free gift. My daughter was feeling to cool to smile for the camera this rainy morning.

A old photo I found of friends long passed. It is a cute photo though so Ill share anyway.

A fluffy butt for friday

Biscotti

Brownie with snickers tail in the way of what would have been a decent pic lol

Sugar, she seems to be getting a super light pinkish brown breast feathers pretty cool looking.

It looks like flour will be my only pure white hen.

Happy Friday everyone!

Had to stick a gloved hand in Brune's butt this morning . An exceptional soft shell egg from her that wouldn't come out.

Theo's tail and wings are back to their former glory! Just a few days and his mane should be coming in nicely.

Such wonderful butts and buttes!
Ok not really any buttes there but it’s the best I could think of . Such dramatic landscape!

Sure hope Brune is ok she is such a pretty hen.

So glad the experienced folks were able to help. I was reading along but had nothing to add that would have been helpful. I hope she recovers completely completely!
