Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[fuentemoon]

For our first week of winter we have had freezing temps, freezing rain/ice storm, 60°f and dry, pouring rain and crazy winds, and today 48 and near constant rain. Got the ladies some hay to play in. Our small backyard farm store collects all the loose hays that drop off the bales and sells a feed bag stuffed full for 3.00.

Little Loosey Goosey just had me laughing until it hurt. My neighbor and Rosie's best friend Maddy has 7 little dogs inside. 6 chihuahua's and 1 tiny maybe 2lb if soaking wet chi x terrier mix. The little mix lulu is a escape artist and when she gets out poor Maddy has to chase her all over the neighborhood. I'm doing the dishes watching chicken tv out my kitchen window, everyone, including the boys were out there. I see Lulu sneaking around the back yard and then she starts mingling with the chickens. Now I have absolutely zero fear of this dog attacking the chickens, she has never bothered them at all. Goose spots her and stops eating. She then starts stalking her from behind getting closer. Lulu notices her and starts to walk away and Goose full on attacked her. I saw her chase Lulu out of sight with the poor pup shrieking. A few minutes later Maddy came knocking on my door. Goose chased her up onto her porch. The escape artist who never wants to be caught was begging to be let in. When they opened the door Goose was still in hot pursuit and chased her inside. Maddy had a very proud and squawking Goose in her arms. It is official the rest of my hens had better watch out, this tiny spitfire is going places when she is older.

Yes I did, but I’m not a hair stylist!

That's no excuse

Dear Bernadette,

I think you are very pretty, I am not sure why your Human would even think of any more chickens! How can she think that any others can compare!

My Human tells me I am beautiful all the time, but then she tells the other ladies they are also beautiful. I don’t think she knows what she is talking about! How can we all be beautiful!

On the other hand if your Human got more chickens you could be the Queen Chicken - and that could mean some opportunities for you! Maybe this would be a good thing!

Stay strong!
Yours truly,

Wee Marty

Update, I had breakfast early .I so love tapioca, thanks to a little bug on another site I was reminded of it and now I'm hooked some bugs are really helpful
