Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

I was hoping to make a memory with Dakota today. I brought her inside and she gave me a memory alright! Now I’m wondering where they are drinking bad water from? what a mess of things!

Calypso doesn’t understand why there are no more blueberries.
Maybe I am being too strict with rations.
She also doesn’t understand why my shirt, though similar in color, is not a good substitute for blueberries.

I thought Calipso had feathered legs ? It’s tassels then is it ? I am all balled up!!!

Anywhoooo I luvs them both

 

[Ponypoor]

No feathers on those slate grey legs

Yup just realized that!! Duh!

I am all balled up here, upset and frustrated, can’t think straight - having a miserable week.

Just glad at least the weather is good. I was enjoying sitting with the chooks when poor Floyd was killed in front of me. They were scrapping a brawl broke out next thing he’s gone

This morning thought I lost Twister couldn’t find her anywhere, a couple hrs later she showed up, she had dug a tunnel in the hay pile and laid an egg in there. Then the boys were harassing the hens, and then Floyd…

 

[Ponypoor]

Wait what?
One of them killed one of the others?!
Oh no!!!

Yes I’m front of me - poor Floyd I was, still am, so furious. All I know is that one way or another those cockerels have to go.

And they nce I locked them away it was such a difference, all the ladies came out, Mr P also, they are all so afraid of those young Roos, and I sure don’t want my silkies killed by them. They are tiny wee things. Or Mr P, he doesn’t deserve having to fight youngsters.

 

[Ponypoor]

Sorry this has happened to your gang there.

Thanks.

And thanks for the awesome photos of your babies climbing on you - gave me a smile

Just looked out my kitchen window...Kasumi was standing up on Liaras back. Just like standing on her like a perch? When I tried to get mg phone Liara started to walk and Kasumi hopped off. So weird.

They manage to break our hearts in so many ways.

Trying to be taller

My chicks would ride on Sophia’s back when she walked much to Sophia’s annoyance. Fine when they are tiny, not so much when they are 4 weeks old! Poor Sophia.

I just wish we had some place near here that I could get them processed. Then I wouldn’t worry so much. But there is no place.

I was discussing with mum and it likely would be cheaper to get my vet to humanely euthanize them rather than driving 2 hrs and paying to get them processed. The price of gas and all…
