Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

There’s things that I see here. There’s a train museum that I can visit. And a model train building that is supposed to be open today. They don’t rent cars by the hour sadly, there is public transportation available though.

So it wasn't a total waste

Enjoy yourself

Mmmm mangos! I wonder if chickens like mango? When I get home I will try them with mange. They do not like apple, but they love cabbage and whole carrots

Mange. That doesn't sound too tasty

Hello Caturday

Well that was exciting. Babs's monster 2nd egg did indeed have two yolks. I have never seen that before! I ate it sunny side up on toast for lunch.
Now stupidly I cracked her small first egg into the pan first, so now I am confused whether I ate two or three eggs for lunch!
It was fun to have, but I do hope she doesn't make a habit of laying big double-yolk eggs.

Yes they were. Very much so. I should have known he was a rooster way before I did.

You knew...somewhere inside, you knew. You just didn't want to know, so didn't listen to that voice deep down inside because you were hoping it wasn't true. I suspect you only admitted it when you just couldn't ignore the fact anymore.

Some chickens surprise you as they don't stand out as a rooster....but Jabberwocky was very roosterly. It's just that he wasn't supposed to be one, and you didn't want him to be one...so it was easy to deny it subconsciously----until you couldn't anymore. Freud gets the better of us sometimes.

Good afternoon everyone.
I have some sad news to report today. Last night I lost little Athena to a monster Raccoon. It was after midnight and the chickens out of the blue started screaming their heads off. By the time I got my shoes on and out the back door I spotted it packing Athena's body towards the creek bank. Thankfully my dogs were right behind me and they tree'd the evil beast in the mimosa tree. He is no more and will never have another chicken dinner. To make it worse I woke up this morning to also find that overnight for no reason I can find the smallest of Chiquita's leghorn babies passed as well. I am at a complete loss with that one. I have to think there was something wrong with it because it was noticeably smaller then the others and the only one who had yet to manage to fly out or in the tote on it's own. I buried Athena and the leghorn together beside Daisy. The evil raccoon did not deserve to be buried, he is in a garbage bag to be picked up Monday morning. Poor Ducky is beside herself. Athena was her partner in crime and she has looked for her all day. In a day or two she will be alright. Perdita and Grackle have been trying to hang out with her and she will for a time. Then she splits off and goes back to searching for Athena.
