Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

The bucket has a tight fitting lid, so no moisture escapes. The corrugated cardboard (around sides & I cut a circle to tape to the lid) acts as a slight insulator so the bucket acts as a slow release of heat (plus, it also helps keep the bucket itself clean of poops - I usually cut a back-up circle for the cover/lid so if I use it multiple times - I can swap out the cover instead of bringing a poopy one into the house. The poopy cardboard then goes into the compost pile.) Since the bucket will sit on bedding, you don't need to worry about the bottom of the bucket RE: cardboard. I have used one during below zero F weather, and it did not freeze overnight - so it was still giving off heat (though not much, as the water was cold, but not frozen)

Reminds me, note to self, buy some more buckets from the Home Depot

Very pretty. What is her breed?

Button is a Blue Australorp.

They are very pretty birds.

Yah, that’s right! Maybe even my time spent as a US Marshal would have been riding a moose ?

Riding moose is illegal here:

This ought to be in there, somewhere!

It’s a barred rock!

Maybe it was a Volvo, not moose!

I thought about it, but I didn’t throw it out there. By Bobs Phyllis has much more class!

Maybe. She used her talent in comedy. She is Phyllis' namesake. Did you know she (P. Diller) was an accomplished classical pianist?

Sick!

Really! I didn't know that.
