Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[CCsGarden]

Ya, from chickens pecking the poor wild birds to wild birds carrying pathogens

The hens were not in the coop when we found her.

Any advice?

I would keep it on a warm dark place to settle down

You can call a wildlife rehab centre in the morning and they will help. They have access to vets and meds for wild birds

Better than a horse walking over you let me tell you

Did you hear the corn?

You don’t understand the corn we get around here. If they talk, you better listen!

For Lovers of Hattie

She is doing great. Her sore is healing. She jumped up on a footstool today for the first time in many months.

Even better she has started showing her wiles. She avoided me in a very clever fashion today.

Last time I caught her in the morning it was when everyone exited the complex when I opened the side door in the morning. So I tried the same thing this morning. Out they came.

Only 5 hens. Where is Hattie? OK. I can wait. So I call her. No response.

Then I hear scratch, scratch, scratch.

It's coming from the Cluckle Hut. Hattie is in the Cluckle Hut scratching around.
I call her again. Out into the porch she comes.

I watch as she tries to work her way onto the ramp and she seems to be having trouble. So I decide to go pick her off the porch. To do so I have to walk around the complex to the door into the big run.

As soon as I get to the door, Hattie jumps off the porch and sprints out across the yard away from me. No medicine for her this morning. Fooled that old human servant again.


She is this active on 1 ml per day. I'm hoping this lasts a long time.

That’s awesome so happy for the pretty hen

I might give Penelope some - she seems to be slowing not moving so fast.

Oh that is such good news!
I love that she is running around and her sore is healing.
So happy!
