Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Sylvester017]

And this is what we got! Two more mugs that we (don't) need!View attachment 3998950

Hahaha! Good going!
We've got a million of them. Some are pencil/ruler holders, some have fake flowers in them, some we donated to thrift stores, some are outside planters. We gotta get rid of so much tee hee!

I have BoPeeps in with me for a while. She acts very shy when she’s outside with the rest. Inside she snuggles right up to, and on top of me, snuggling her cheek against mine. She remembers all the times we had together. A sweetheart for sure.

I love the snuggly hens which in our case are all our Silkies except one who prefers to be the standoffish flock guardian. Some chickens are natural snuggle buns, lap sitters, some are alert guardians, some are hypersensitive, others laid back. Like a box of chocolates ~ never know what you're gonna get.

Our standoffish Silkie flock guardian "Ginny" is 2nd in pecking order after the old alpha Dominique:

Ginny ~ Buff/blue Partridge

"Dana" both a snuggly lap jumper & alpha Dominique

Nothing more satisfying than seeing Bert fit right in. Obviously the ladies have no problem welcoming the handsome gent!

Look at that! He’s already happy and settled in.

Ditto!

Thank you for asking, all is good, though with winter upon me I am sure the whining and weather taxes will be flowing!

Yes I re-homed Bert, Mr P’s son.

Yes Mr P is doing well, I cannot wait until his feathers all grow in though!

Weather whining tax

May as well start now!

Don’t let the lack of snow fool you, it was darn cold and windy all day, didn’t get above freezing at all

They sure didn’t stay out long. Just a quick dirt bath and back inside.

So cute! A Roman communal bath comes to my mind...

 

[Marie2020]

Cute!

We avoid going out on Black Friday madness!

Very wise decision IMHO
I never go to shops what the sheep are out and about in their drones

Covid days was manic, that's the first time in year's I risked being in a public place when people are frantically or fanatically shopping

The butt star is a pattern my husband found and thought was hilarious, so I made it for the tree. We don't like to impale the angels here, I prefer a star on top!

I wonder if any of the girls would have started laying by now? Oh no, now I am sad

Awwww don’t be sad, remember the happy times.

Next year will be a new start, it will be eggciting. I can’t wait to see your new chooks next year.

And I love the star butt Great job BTW.

Well looks like it’s my turn now to get snow.

Snow squall warning are out for today possibly into Tuesday. Not likely to get the huge amt of snow DS & BIL received (likely at 150cm or over 4’ by now), but if I get 25cm (about 1’) that will make the stupid drivers go slewing about:

It’s sunny right now so I am heading out to let everyone out for some Roman Communal Dirt Bathing
