Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Grammy60]

You are not making a scene - we are all here for you. I cried when the fox took Scary (RIP Scary) and here I am now posting tributes to Maggie who seems hale and hearty and all just because the vet told me she would die soon and offered to euthanize.
We all feel your pain.

we will give as many hugs and comforting words as you need we all have gone through this at some point

Trapped!

I missed it but Mr. Squirrel got himself chased into the big run yesterday. The only reason I noticed is that Hattie came running out of the far end of the big run squawking that "something that doesn't belong is in the run" squawk.

Lilly stands at the exit watching Mr. Squirrel as he tries to desperately find another exit. She then moves off as if bored but I don't think Mr. Squirrel believed her. I think he was worried that she was faking him out. He did eventually get out the same door Hattie used after she moved off.

I really don't know if they will ever catch him or not but it feels like they get closer every time. 🐿

A bit more teamwork and they could have got him.

Very true. If Lilly could get the other girls to block both exits she could wait him out in the run. He's lucky the others aren't as interested as Lilly and Phyllis are.

I had a revelation this morning, @BY Bob I'm pretty sure Goldie is Lucky's mom. Lucky has the white legs of an Orpington. Her feathering is also much fuller then any of the other birds, except for Goldie.

I had a very good side by side comparison this morning, but I didn't have my phone with me for a picture. I'm sure there is no way Goldie has any idea that Lucky is her daughter, but it is neat to see them paling around together!

Crazy Mr. Squirrel! We have squirrels galore, but they’ve never entered the run. Probably because chasing them is my dog’s favorite activity!

That’s so special! Like Ned and Stanley!
