Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Sylvester017]

I keep hearing Mr Wyandottey out in the yard crowing. And when I go out, he comes strolling on up, as if to say “well, where’s my treat this time?” I have cut back on treats for all the birds for a while.
Now maybe twice a day only.
Yeah, I’m such a mean person

In our rain & cold weather we actually increased treat nutrition for more fat intake. Right before roost they get insistent scratching at the back door demanding a last treat to fill their crop for the night They trained us well.

Thinking of my girl

I wasn't here at the beginning ~ do you have pics of all the girls you had?

I had a dream where she visited me. In fact a few fluffy butt regulars did. She had a very cute accent and I made cornbread for everyone.

Your dreams are like fairy tale classics

I dreamt that o was someplace where there was a huge river and crocs. There were black muck earth fields next to the river but separated from the river by a 6’ chain link fence to keep out the crocs.

I was driving on Ol Blue and saw someone sitting on a lawnchair with a small poodle and a croc had it by the one hind haunch! I yelled at the person who smacked the croc and it let go of the dog.

Then I woke up. Hope the dog was ok!

Crazy tax

I would get a couple more lavender Orps if I could.

Now your dream on the other hand was spookier than Jenn's

Nice

I see you have a quiche coming soon!

I have tried those feeders. They don’t work well, they just make a mess. Just FYI

That's what we discovered also. The chicks stand on top & poop all over the chick mash.

We finally invested in the chick feeder ports from Rent-a-Coop. Wish we had these w/ past chicks! We put tiny millet seeds on the port ledge & the chicks soon discover more chick feed inside the port hole ~ clean chick feed & no waste..

This little one let me take her picture too
