Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Outside with my girls and boys. Hades screamed when I picked him up but that lets him know who the boss is. They all had treats and grit and oyster shells. I got a video uploading at the moment and will post it in a few minutes but here are photos from a few minutes ago.

That happens to me all the time!
I had one fall asleep with her head through a hole in the wire. I thought she broke her neck but nope, just reclining.

Easter Eggers normally arent broody. If your lucky you might get 1 out of about 10

Or in my case 4 of them (out of 4hahaha)

Butter busts that myth as well, never went broody yet. The other 3, it will not surprise me to be fighting them this spring. 2 of them already tried half-hearted attempts. 1 girl went as far as to pluck out her chest feathers and try to sit on nothing for 2 days. Thankfully she was easy to break. I would love it though if I can get through a entire year without just about every single hen thinking they need to hatch eggs. Will it happen, of course not, I have a momma hen. I will say this now, if those Cinnamon Queens go broody I will cry. Of all my girls I should be able to count on them to not want to raise chicks. Now don't anyone try to go busting that myth please.

…. again - don’t tempt the Fates!

My girl Bolt fell asleep on the nest. I thought she was dead until I picked her up... She did almost die from me squeezing her and scolding her

What about Florida, Georiga border?!

Ummm well sure I guess it’s warm enough there!

But will you hen cooperate and go broody when you want? Ha! Never !

Aurora,

I have no fear for you. I have great respect for you, as a rising star. I think you shall appoint me your successor.

My servant always say I am a very special hen: "Ready to rock and share the joyfulness of life right at shell-cracking!" I am the most junior hen in my tribe, yet I am the only one that can handle palm-sized frogs; I am the only hen that hugs my servant (yes that forever enslaved him); Everyone eats around the dinner bowl, but I eat IN IT; My eggs are as pink as yours (there I said it) ......

Aurora, I am a hen that never regrets anything I bawked.

Yours truly,
Foxy

Audacious!

We take the eggs anyway We have had a boop noodle ( yellow rat snake- non-venomous) come and steal eggs before we could even get them I almost got bit a few times... shooting him with water guns and poking him with sticks really did a wonder... not seen him since!!
