Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Desertvalleychickens]

Lovely boxes! Awesome that they are using them. Can you send them over to tell my girls that nesting boxes are nice and not evil things to be avoided at all costs

"Erm, Hooman, stop the photography.
Anyways, this is a message from the Desert Valley Hens! Nest boxes are NOT something to be afraid of! They are very comfortable and easy to work with. When your Hooman servant puts soft bedding in there, it's extra comfy! A perfect place to lay eggs!"

Don't worry about this part....

Modern remake just using birds for all the dinosaurs! Like, emus and cassowaries are already 10000% scary

I will tell them when I go out on my daily egg hunt this afternoon! I hope it works finger crossed .

It's done, but needs a little tweaking. Maybe another row or two now that it's sewn together. The eggs shown are large store bought ones, and it was a little tight for them.

Without the center egg they fit fairly securely, but the center egg pushes them up a little so they don't feel super secure. Yeah, a row or two along the edges should fix that.

BUT this is what rough drafts are for! I can try making another here in a bit, maybe use a different thickness yarn, different stitch count, stuff like that.

I do think it will be fine for my use though!

That is adorable!

That is adorable!

@SimpleJenn I agree, it is adorable, what a great idea!

Reposting these mugs. I woke up to 4 inches of white trash on the ground and it is still falling. Not running outside with the camera. Winter Wonderland my foot.

Morinth is the black one with lacing, Samara is the white girl! Funny enough, Shep the marans is softer to touch (and loves to cuddle)

Kiddo is obsessed with Morinth though so I'm putting in extra work to help her get used to petting.

Well, they are all stunning. Hi Shep, aren’t you a pretty girl?
