Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

Oh. Haha. Shows what a car buff I am NOT. It’s a 1990.

So that still has the reverse wiring with the positive ground. That is not fun to work with.

Not mine. But my Vanilla is white and lays blue, so....close enough.

You are not fighting fair. So cuuuuuute!

I am so weak.

More white than black on the wing feathers also is a trait of males as i have been told, correct?

Yes.

Always glad to help. It took a bit to put that together.

Much appreciated! I didn’t mean to create more work for you; I was wondering if you’d already put it together. Thank you so much!

Sounds like a lot of work but a good start.
Don't work too hard.

Oh my goodness, this is very hard work! Wrists are sore and my arms are shaking. It’s only 12:30! I’m making good progress, though.
I seriously hope DH will do his junk area. Otherwise, my work isn’t worth much, as they will just relocate over there. Chicken area is between here and there. Bunnies now live near the area I’m taking care of.

Somewhere in your operating system there is an application for resizing pictures. I try to use such an application for general forum posts. It helps a lot with page loading and site storage.
If you are submitting pictures for competitions like pic of the week then high resolution images and large file sizes are better.

Thank you, @Shadrach, I will try resizing next time!

Sounds like you are doing a great job! I have a similar pile I need to work through but it is full of mice which I take as a good sign that I don't have rats (rats snack extensively on mice I believe).

The wants thing is out of control here, thank you very much. They now assume that there are always walnuts in my pockets and get quite indignant when I do not have any. Thry get quite snitty!

My pleasure Bob, my pleasure. Anything to help chickens enjoy life.

So I’ve been thinking more about this and hate the fact that I play a huge role in this awful cycle by buying hatchery birds. But right now I enjoy them too much not to. I’m really torn.

It's really difficult if you live in the USA in particular. I'm sure there are responsible chicken loving breeders but finding them is another matter.
