Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Grandma The Chicken]

She watched Beat It. One of my favorite songs from Michael Jackson. I will say this is one of my favorite music videos, just because of the plot and how the song fits the scenes.

She also watched Billie Jean. This is the only the beginning and no, she won't be listening to just Michael Jackson. She'll be listening to newer music that I like and older music. Later, I'll have her listen to music in my second language that I heard on a cassette tape in the car a decade ago. More on that later when I get there. I didn't realize I was that old.

Currently watching Smooth Criminal, another cinematic experience. Tony is just watching me type on here, so it may look like she's looking at the camera but she is actually listening and looking at the screen occasionally.

I don’t blame her!

I promised Tony there wouldn't be any more scary monsters.

The girls have been scratching the ground around and underneath the old playhouse for a little bit now, but I just finally coaxed them up into it! This is your future coop, girls, better get comfortable!

Magrat went up first (well... I picked her up and brought her in). Gytha followed immediately behind, then I picked up Esme and put her in, and then after a few minutes Sybil came to check it out too!

Aliss was standing frozen at the bottom of the steps for like, 5 minutes. The goofball.

"I dunno about this, guys..."

But with a little coaxing from Sybil, Aliss finally made her way up the steps.

Have I mentioned that they're practically inseparable?

They did a little rummaging through leaves and nutshells...

And Esme decided it was time for her to go

"I'll be back in a few!"

Sybil always starts the snoozefest.

Gytha joins with gusto for a Twosday pic!

The gang's almost all here (Esme decided to scratch underneath the playhouse instead of coming back up).

Great spot for a lookout!

The retail store so dangerous lol They had just two bins set up tractor supply style - one for bantam pullet chicks and one for straight run bantams. They do not allow anyone past the retail store though to keep bio security tight! I did resist the temptation of the bantam pullet bin, it was not easy let me tell ya!

First box opening - so tiny!!!!

Omg the poof one, it’s so big! This baby is already, overachieving day one outta the egg.

Bantam cochin cuteness

Another silkie baby pic and then I drove back home. 6 hrs total drive time but totally worth it so they could avoid the USPS.

Did you just pick them out of a bin, or did you pre-order them?
