Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

Okay... gave it to the girl and she did it all even without your info..sorry to make you do all that but I do appreciate it.. but it would never fully download soI don’t know ... we’ll try again in a bit.. it makes me so nervous to do stuff like this.. I get paranoid that I’ll lose all my pics or all of my stuff will be added to YouTube ... one time I pressed something on my camera and it deleted all of my photos ... I have tried it again just to see what went wrong but it would never do it again .... so I’m always like.. you never know!!!

It will work. It can take a lot of time for long videos to upload. I resisted doing this for a long time, privacy and all. So far I have only uploaded chicken videos so reasonably safe, lol.

How Can this be Happening to Me!

You ever have one of those days where it feels like everything, including the weather is against you. I think Lilly was having one of those days yesterday. They all gathered on the deck to have some warm scrambled eggs on a cold drizzly day. Just as they started eating the rain turned heavy. Poor Lilly couldn't take it. She started yelling, stomping around. Eventually Hattie joined in from her dry spot under the table. The littles just let her go and ate. It's all quite humorous but she was definately fed up. I recorded some of it. Poor baby.

So are there any chicken psychologists on BYC?! I had two shouty girls this morning and I have no idea why. After initial yelling from the run, Chickie appeared to take umbrage with our outdoor laundry. I don't know if she was fed up waiting for breakfast and knew it was being prepared in there, or she didn't like the washing-machine, which was making intermittent noises. She kept looking in the direction of the laundry, first with one eye, then the other and cackling her head off. She'd stop when I came out of the house, then she'd set off again when I went back inside! There has been peace since breakfast was served.

My lot can get very noisy when they want attention ~ attention, not necessarily food. It's a different sound when it's just food they want. They also have a collective racket when they want out. It starts if they see me & stops if they see me walking away. They're a card!

Well, mine is somewhere around a minute and a half.. is that long..? Anyway, I believe I stopped it before it was done cuz it was taking so long... so I may try again..

I can take 5 minutes or sometimes longer to download a video that long. You need patience for You Tube.

How long is the video? I have had them take 5 minutes depending on size and internet capability.

There are different sounds when they want food, want attention, want out of the run, or even are frustrated by something.

What could they be looking for?

My girls have become obsessed with planters. I can't figure out why but over a few weeks they will empty all the dirt out of this planter. Aurora starts it and then everyone joins in. I can't figure this one out.

It was a lot longer than that... it may have stalled because I titled it very similar to another YouTube video (I was not aware of this!) and the other one is rated “mature” so I’m glad it didn’t work... if I do it again I will change the title so there’s no mistaking!!

It’s about a minute and a half long...
