Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Isn't that one of your Azure leghorns?

If it's got Leghorn in it I count it as a Leghorn. I have four. Josey (Exchequer Leghorn), Felicitas and Agathae (Cream Legbar) and Gaby (Welsummer).

They are called Azur Blues, they are a cross with Leghorn and Aracona blue egg layers

My only worry is if they are laying eggs like crazy and burn themselves out like other high production breeds.

I hope they don't burn themselves out.

Those are adorable - you are so clever!

 

[RoyalChick]

You must be more careful. Too many rely on you.

Thanks yes you are correct, it’s hard to be always careful!

I seem to have bruised my ribs; the chooks have been digging up mount poopmore and ruining my nice path I have going up the manure pile that is use to push the wheelbarrow up there. This morning I slid off the edge of the path and fell against the handle of the wheelbarrow landing on my left side upper ribs, it wasn’t bothering me until I went to bed. Another sign that I am not 19 anymore!

Last night

Gosh everyone (even me) had a lovely evening, oh the dirt was a bit too wet for a real good dust bathing but who cares when it was nice and warm.

You have so many chickens that it makes me remember. Years ago there were about 35 chickens at DVC, but the price of feed going up kept my chicken numbers down.
That's why I'm grateful to have 13 lovely chickens.

Oh, by the way, I am once again grounded. I might not be in here for a few days. The only reason I am on here right now is because I told my mom that I was using my phone for homework. She never needs to find out…

Well, I’ll check in when I can. I missed Mugs Monday so here.

Happy Twofer Tuesday!

I agree that your 13 chooks are indeed very lovely.
