Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Pastel the Rooster]

Word of advice, make the coop just a little bit bigger then what you think you need. The satin silkie girls already proved chicken math is real.

Be a little quiet everyone, Sir Jaffar is asleep:

Sir Jaffar, you are very handsome.

A little bit? Make it as big as you can! Space gives you a lot of options. Brooder, hospital, isolation for whatever reason, storage, and of course, MORE CHICKENS!!!

I have lost internet. A surprisingly likeable Verizon Bot told me sweetly it will be out for at least 24 hours.
I have patchy cell phone coverage if I am lucky.
So no TV, no PC, no coop cameras, no BYC.
This wouldn’t faze me normally except that the temperatures are plummeting tonight so tomorrow would be a good day not to go outside.
I can already hear that the mice have all come inside to warm up in my walls and ceilings.
See you all when I reconnect to the world.
Tax (if it will upload).

"Hello. Thank you for calling Verizon. Press 1 for this, press 2 for that, press 3 for chicken noises, press 4 to speak with a human, press 5 for fart noises, press 6 for outage info"
*Presses 6*
"Your internet will be out for 24 hours. Have a good night and enjoy your temporarily internet free world."

On a serious note we lost Internet a couple days ago. It took them a few hours to get it back up.

Gaby really knows how to pose when on my lap. Forget ThinkPads, I have a Gaby for a laptop.

Not at all. No pressing. Just chat to the nice lady who was only very subtly not human.
I suspect some careless construction guy must have cut through the cable.
As the nice ‘lady’ said: there are a lot of people in your area without service!

Tax (may upload later): BFTP (Lulu never needed a cable to communicate out there!)

No pressing? Sounds like a miracle.

Lulu doesn't need cable probably because she's got a Styrophone Mobile plan.

Lulu sadly is no longer with us. She had extra-terrestrial friends she has gone to join. She made plans with her friends using her built-in aerial on her head.

Of course! I got a raised eyebrow at the "up to 12 chickens" size...then did some backwards math to explain why it's perfect for our six.
Considering I heard hubby tell kiddo we could talk about a pompom chicken "next time we get chickens" I think the math is rubbing off on him too.
