Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

I suggest this brand: I took the picture so I can pick up the right ones for my neighbor, when I get to town tomorrow:View attachment 3687860

Yes, when it’s needed, and I am going to town, I will, and do pick up items for my neighbor in need.

How about some Azurs? They look like leghorn but lay blue eggs

This is Flopsy, she has a lovely floppy comb.

I bet that’ll do!

Whiskey and Albert are 24 weeks old today. Albert has a way to go before we see eggs- probably will be a January layer. I’ve been hoping Whiskey would lay earlier- was supposed to start at 18 weeks. No crouching or nest visiting yet

And I’ll jump on the bandwagon: View attachment 3687866I swear this is a proper adult’s mug, made out of ceramics and everything.

“And everything!”

That requires a SHRA Tax (should have read ahead tax). I already pointed that out

I feel like wattles today…

Taxes gone wild!

Tongue in cheek, but! -

I think, and maybe everyone disagrees with me, that if everyone is asked for statements of opinions and not facts, that everyone can chime in and no taxes are required, despite similar or redundant opinions. I say!

Nobody knows for sure what is going on with Sylvie The Soon-To-Be Naked Neck (might need a real-life Spoiler, @RoyalChick , just sayin’).

Just because several of us think it’s a post-broody molt and we give that opinion after the very first one posts, that doesn’t mean that we all owe tax!

I noticed @Pastel The Rooster mentioned taxes to me too, on their question of what we thought they ought to do about their big flock vs. tiny funds. Isn’t that a question of opinion? This needs another emoji or two

I need to get more pics and will do. In order to pay these gratuitous, chicken-loving, no-reason-just-because so-called “taxes”! OK will step off soapbox now

I love it ! It's cute but different.

Monday mugs :

Laure has began laying after having a huge red comb for months, and though she is the biggest of the hatch, she lays the tiniest eggs- smaller than Piou-piou who is half her size ! Should I be concerned or does it just depends on the hen ?

Lilly. After breaking off a nail and getting Bumblefoot she broke her beak yesterday .

Annette

Lulu, last pullet that is still not laying.

Léa

And two hardcore mugs of Nougat, my four years old ex-batt who is having a fast hard molt.

Spoiler

She has mobility issues . She walks crouching on her knees and goes in circles instead of heading the shortest way. It's not a problem with her legs, as she can stand upright on both legs, or one leg only on each side, more like an issue controlling movement. I’ve been thinking nutritional deficiency, even though she still eats all the usual food but in smaller quantities , so I add daily scrambled egg, mackerel every other day, walnuts and almonds for vitamin B and I just started giving her human vitamins B complex.

Any thoughts on what else I could do ? Am I missing something? Hopefully at the speed it's going, the worse should be over in a few days.

I love the barred/cuckoo pattern Very sharp

Thanks, the hen in the nest is Onyx. She is a cross between my Dominique rooster and my Brahma hen. Do you know if this makes her a Cuckoo Brahma?

Okay, @Ponypoor , please read the post above. The people of FBA are starting to revolt against the taxes!

Yes, very dainty and lady-like wattles, with a lovely comb and Fascinator to boot!

Her hatchmates Bandit and Crook looked just like this Rooster here in the front. (Sorry I can't find any pics of them when they grew up)
