Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[SimpleJenn]

My parents gave me my phone back and I have no idea why. Eli will be dropped off around 3. I’m very eggcited.

Probably because you put in an honest effort to improve.
And I'm excited too! Please share pics when you can!

[SimpleJenn]

Lovely recap!
Today my toddler wandered off while we were playing in the yard. Of course she was feeding dandelions to the chicks!
I brought Kasumi out for pets, then Shep. Shep actually came up to the door twice to be picked up! Ash was not happy with the thought of them, and Liara ran away as usual. I feel she's going to be the most hands-off chicken. But as soon as I caught a grasshopper Liara was first to the mesh to snatch it up!
I didn't get pictures, I had left my phone inside haha.

Caturday

Missy - yes she still has a tail

 

[BY Bob]

Lol Featherhead keeps calling em’ that… I think maybe to see how many times I’ll say what they actually are.
The answer to which is every time because they are so cool Jubilee Orps just like BY Bobs LF, who inspired my choice and a fine choice it was.

Wonderful beautiful chickens.

 

[BY Bob]

So large poultry farms even worm? The chooks are not even around long enough I would think, to even build up a load, or even get worms if they are cages/warehoused.... ??

They cannot afford to have worms in the eggs.

Is in Germany enjoying Octoberfest (a bit early).

Oktoberfest is in September in Munich. Always has been.

Jasmine is about the same. But really do think it is just molting. When I managed to examine her really closely I found little pin feathers everywhere.
