Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Josephine is now thinking she can sleep inside.
And the annoying neighbors have loud music on. The chooks do not like it. Neither do I.

That is so true. Just when your having a bad day they come over and let you know you are loved no matter what. It is such a blessing.

Have to say yet again that if I had know how much fun chickens were I would have got rid of the horses yrs ago!

Horse update:
Truly had a couple ticks on her I hauled off, but the one I guess I didn’t get the whole sucker, now she has a large egg sized swelling there. I have her on some meds for pain and swelling but I see it’s worse tonight so I guess some antibiotics are called for, also incase of Lyme disease.

Oh my they are just precious! I opened the tent up today fully prepared to grab the movable fence enclosure for them but nope Brownie is like these girls and in no hurry to go anywhere with the tiny walking tennis balls.

I was watching them today and goodness Brownie really pesters them to eat eat eat!! If they are out from under she insists they be scratching food and will even gently peck them into action. Do your girls do this too? Fascinating to watch how they teach them to chicken.

Yes my broodies are constantly dropping goodies for them - I tried to give just the mamas treats but they offer to the babes instead!

And because this is supposed to be a chicken thread. Here is Aurora hanging out in the chair next to me tonight.

This is my new rule. If I am going to discuss things other than chickens, I will place a photo of a chicken in the post.

And here is the beginning of tax.

Wel, the dinglings went into the freezer yesterday. I think the girls are happier. They've been out more since they were moved into the garage, inspite of them still crowing.

And Thing

Came all the way up to the porch all on her own yesterday. I shredded a grape for her to enjoy.

Wild water is always yummy, everyone has a sip while I was cleaning the waterer

Philomena and Beetov-hen are here. Beetov-hen insists on sitting in my hand.

That's a great photo!

All this jibber-jabber outside of chicken chatter requires tax SVP

(I suggest Metallica played good and loud!)
