Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

But Babs has always been more reserved and more aware of her surroundings - that is who Babs is.

Now Bernie understands why Maggie would need to go for a solo 'stroll about' and why Diana so cherished her peaceful spot against the wall...until someone started jumping on her head!

It's not easy being in charge. Heavy is the head.......

Good as far as I can tell. I need to weigh her - I do worry about her not eating enough.
I also wonder how I get this to end. Eli is not the kind of chicken you can confine in a broody jail.
I keep hoping she will just come to her senses.

After 21+ days destroy her nest and remove her eggs. That should do it.

I was trying to gently “break” (I really don’t love this term) Brownie before I decided to give her the eggs. Take the golf balls and remove any eggs as quickly as you can. Then at night after everyone roosts, gently lift her up and stick her on the roost bar. It may not work and it definitely will take longer but it may be worth a shot before confining her.

Then don't you let them free-range at certain times
like one day roos, one day hens?

i only have 1 coop. They all live together...I had to get creative to separate the dingalings, and it's a temporary setting at best.

Rosie brag!!
She took digital literacy this year. She just took the test and passed for her Microsoft Certification Certificate. Passing this test also awards her to be able to not take the semester exam and get a automatic 100 on it.

He gets the water today. Too much soda isn’t good for anyone!

Perrier, at least, one would hope!

@LhickenChicken if you need to evacuate an head south across the border, I'm pretty close to due south of you. PM me and I'll have something figured out by the time you reach me.

But she can’t bring her critters across the border
