Synopsis for 12/31/2023 to 1/6/2024

Last week’s Synopsis (12/23-12/30 2023):
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27396759

This week’s news is my New Year's resolution to do more of an actual brief synopsis and less of a term paper! Unless I can't.

Hey, that's not news! OK, actual news --


The biggest news is that @BY Bob held a contest of song suggestions for "Phyllis' Party Playlist", with massive response. As we know Phyllis really likes to party. New Year's Eve is her ultimate party night! So we'll start with @BY Bob and following that everyone is in alphabetical order. More or less.

@BY Bob

Phyllis is all gussied up, going out to party on New Year’s Eve!

@BY Bob saw the New Year in, in real time (wow, I was in bed by 10:30pm)

Phyllis looking a little bleary New Year’s Day - she was out all night!

Phyllis loves to party like a Supermodel would - but with which alcohol? (see Berthie @RebeccaBoyd)

The new layer revealed, guess first. A beauty!

@ChicoryBlue (that's me) might have started it inadvertently
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27402992
@Ponypoor has a suggestion
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27403400
And another song idea from @Ponypoor, but this is for @featherhead ‘s Dakota

https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27406114

Perry couldn’t stand for a bit after being interrupted from dustbathing. Then she was fine. Should BeastBaby be worried? Side-note - human pictures (BABY!) for unneeded tax, what the?

@CCsGarden

She has been winning photo contests on BYC and is unstoppable. @notabitail would like us to step up and give her some competition. Here’s a series of posts in a row, beginning with this post, and the third is a particularly nice pic of their housebird (dove?)
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27405848
Nice shot of a hen that lays her egg in a “dirt nest” outside the nestbox

@ChicoryBlue

A heavy snow, a bit unexpected, but the netting is holding up well. No one else seems to have gotten any snow?
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27396423

Fluffy Butt Friday, shots of the Spuds of course! Sorry, just one bum. They all are getting big, and especially fluffy with the cold. https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27410718

@Desertvalleychickens

An accounting of the animals that were lost on the Titanic, it included chickens. Sad to lose animals too
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27397365

Their own chickens, and then (I think) a handsome island rooster and a mama and babies
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27395129

Island chickens, showing what looks to me like strong Game characteristics, also a glimpse of a past favorite Barred Rock hen
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27398255
An island rooster - hey, you know we don’t see too many rooster pics on this thread!
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27398280
Island rooster and hen, nice pics for winter!

Always nice to see Jaffar doing his cocorico

But this day Jaffar is tired 🙁

Wasn’t Dakota a messy eater before too?

@featherhead007 has also been working on psycho-chicken-human relations with one certain hen (Flash). Says she’s “in the doghouse” but I think that’s actually @featherhead ‘s residence

Good list of alternate names for Flash, my favorite is “Feathered version of Chucky the doll. (Friends till the end)”
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27406156
@BY Bob chimes in with a good one
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27406453
Breakthrough in the long psycho-session with Flash. So is she a new hen now?

@Kris5902

She's back!

The in-laws have not been kind. More goats in the family! They’ve all moved to a different island now.....sounds like a better situation in a lot of respects.
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27399263

More info about her new place. Sad news about who couldn’t come with her, but good news on a descendant of one. The place came with three poorly chickens who will be feeling much better now that she is tending to them!
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27399317 ….And an explanation of the curved shape of bark back there in the middle pics, it's “Golf Frisbee”

Short post on the background of Kris’ & DH situation they finally had to leave

@lightm

Nice Fluffy Butt Friday pics!
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27395187

A welcome relief during Phyllis’ Party Playlist Madness posting stretch of some dust-bathing beauties. Some great shots of the three digging in, and all in a perfect row. Some serious business, this here. Look at that focus, the concentration, the effort! Putting their shoulders (and feet) to the wheel! Rather, to the dirt. Wonderful.

Tres is still there, and another chicken-as-dinosaur cartoon, plus someone new is laying!
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27395388

The decision to rehome Tres, or send him to camp. He’s sadly not taking care of everyone there
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27398958
Tres may have let up a bit, but not enough, Meanie was out and about, but then hid again
https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...es-stories-of-our-flock.1286630/post-27405671
And yet! Here’s a post showing them “peacefully co-existing” together.

I think she means Meanie….finally on the roost! Yay!

@RebeccaBoyd

Berthie has partied with Phyllis for New Year’s and is paying the price. Also - a scolding for Branch, who should have at least chaperoned and kept Berthie from trying to out-drink Phyllis!

Berthie is definitely not right after New Year’s, just look at her step

Poppet had several hours outside free-ranging, unplanned, unsupervised, yikes! Poppet's okay and had a great time. But what happened and why?

A chicken that will nap on your lap - Pippy is pretty laid-back!

Grandma and Mozzarella, nice mugshots! GTC is anticipating some nice chicken snow-prints

Amazing synopsis as usual, Chickory. And that is actually Parmesan. I need to start color coding my chickens so you all can tell the difference between the two.
 
Nothing matters anymore! Gloves are off! I will teach Dakota how to be a good part of my tribe, or I will die trying!!!!! Yes, I do realize that a redhead is very hard to tame !
Oooo yes Meatallica! Nothing really matters! Great song.

Oh sorry are we still on Dakota? sorry missing a day here 😁
 
The neighbor told them to keep the eggs, and told them how to do a float test to see if some of them are past their prime.

The chickens are just about feral now. I think they "go home" at night (else they'd all be gone, I bet), but get out everyday. The neighbor has basically written them off and doesn't worry about whether they survive or not.
Yep definitely would be living here now if they were here!
