Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[notabitail]

I am.
Sleeping in two hour stretches.
Wondering if it might be a good idea to eat some boiled rice in the middle of the night.

A midnight snack is very wise.

Opaque white plastic over a frame (a greenhouse thing)

Needs to be transparent (or at least translucent) if she is going to grow pole beans....for the chooks

If there are any of these that you think I should enter into the cutest fowl contest let me know.

Ummmm:
5+5+5 = 15 Who is the 16th?

Want pictures of all so we can count ourselves and be sure the math is correct.

Mr P. looks so happy. Has he noticed the chicks yet?

I've got to say, this broody stuff is interesting.
None of ours are broody, but Gaby terrifies Dominica every day, even pulling her neck feathers, and Agathae has bit Gaby's fluffy butt once. I'm wondering why mine do that.
Oh, and keep the in box charger from your Samsung phones, Bob. It should be a fast charger. That way your phone won't take as long to recharge.

I had completely forgotten about this. Wow!

Homeschool. You get additional perks. Like watching chickens and boring math.

Ooo I used to be very good with Maths. And you use math in every aspect of one’s life, for instance measuring to build things

I would be an Engineer if I went back to school now Or maybe an architect

Just think of the awesome coops I would build if I were an architect multi storied, play structures for the chooks, broody home, chicken hospital. Yep I would be broke!

I really surprised @Ponypoor beat you to this. I mean this was in your wheelhouse.

Yes but he steers clear of them because I am hovering over them to keep the rotten old cows away from them. I trust Henny not to kill them but the others like Rose I just don’t trust.

Once they are a few weeks old I will be more willing to let them roam with the girls and Mr P.

Friday I will have chicks to shove under Curly and Fluffy - I am hoping and praying they do well with them, that they don’t start fighting between the chicks.

You have nerves of steel I am anxious just thinking about it!
