Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[rural mouse]

Grandma just finished up doing a 50 state embroidered flower quilt in blue for my brother. It is pretty and I love it. I was actually slightly jealous. Not anymore, Look what I found. 50 state bird one finished and ready to send to the quilter. I would have fought them all over this one. The rest of the tops are beautiful, but this one has my name written all over it.

As one crafter to another, please tell your Gran she does BEAUTIFUL work!

Aww, chickies! I can’t let my girls have chicks; I’d be sad if anything happened to them and I’d inevitably end up with more boys!

Lozzy, Roos need love too!

About your brother’s quilt…. Steal it.

Found a mouse hiding under the edge of the foundation, so not putting fresh bedding in just yet. Gonna give them time to find the little devil or it to decide to vacate the premises.

Write a tiny eviction notice to the mouse. You do know how to write “mouse” don’t you?

Wow, that is beautiful! She is a very good embroiderer! What a lovely quilt....and what a lovely memory to have of grandma - that gorgeous quilt.

I have a very small (lap size) afghan my grandmother crocheted. It is nothing terribly special...but it is so very special to me!

Visiting your friend there

Hopefully when you get back someone will want to be broody.

Actually, I’m going to check out a piece of property in Fort Collins (a ranch house with acreage and horses.) then off to Denver.

My friend knitted a scarf for my rooster.

That's what I did: clear the hiding places, leave it bare, "chickens, dinner is available to the fastest/sneakiest bird"

I believe that the white male Guinea may be the aggressor. They've had a female now for 2 weeks. I may turn them out later this evening but we have a bunch of chicks free ranging now. Hope that by adding a lady they cool their jets but we'll see.

My white male is an aggressor towards one of my lower-on-the-pecking order male.

I'm going to confirm if it is the white one and give him away if it is. I'd like to let everyone out together.
