Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Shew, I am breathing a bit easier right now. Poppet is torturing me as you all know. Without DNA sexing silkies are just incredibly hard to sex. Everything about her screams pullet, but at 11 months and no egg doubts started creeping in. Those were compounded with the fact that I am really attached to that little pipsqueak and she follows me around like a dog when I am outside. I get attached to the boys, and the boys me so alarm bells started ringing. With yesterdays good "mug" photo's I went to the experts last night in the silkie forum for reassurances.

They have spoken, pullet. They also reminded me silkies can take forever to lay that first egg. I knew this, but, it helps to be reminded of that. Ok Poppet, back to bribing you for the egg. I WANT SILKIE BABIES!

Now really does she look at all like Teddy?

Nope!

She looks like Marty, and Fluffy. A pullet

And a finch baby!

I was wondering who laid the lovely blue eggs!

So tiny aren’t they

Only 11 months?
Bernie and Calypso both nearly hit a full year! She is enjoying being young and carefree!

I am left wondering if Betty is laying eggs yet, she is 20 weeks. But it’s don’t think so, she isn’t squatting or anything yet.

What is up with this?:
The other day I got the RSV vaccine which is supposed to help prevent the virus. but since then, I’ve been feeling lousy and I had to go to the walk in clinic for a breathing treatment.
I’m hoping that everyone is enjoying the walnuts and almonds, pistachio nuts and the citrus available. Because I’m surely paying for it with my health! It’s spraying season here

Oh no!

Gosh I sure hope you’re ok, and I hope you’re taking your puffer

My allergies are starting full swing now that the grass is growing and soon the tree pollin will be out.

"I'm never gonna dance again. Guilty feet have got no rhythm.
Thought it's easy to pretend, I know you're not a fool.
I should've known better than to cheat a friend and waste the chance that I'd been given.
So I'm never gonna dance again the way I danced with you."

Ooooo oldies! Sing it!

It has been stuck in my head. That's why I decided to write out the lyrics for this photo. Enjoy some sultry saxophone, everyone. I know that Grandma's going to throw her head around like she always does everytime she hears something.
