Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

Sadly she didn't make it overnight, Shad. Ceres will be going to the Vet on her own. She's doing much better but I'm not happy about her @ all. I suspect a number of different things went wrong all @ once. I've only got 2 of them.

Oh I am so sorry.

What is the name of the one looking right at the camera in the second shot? Very cute!

That’s little Java

That’s little Java

Little Java is my favorite. She, lets pray, looks like she's full of herself.

Pretty sure, she. She’s really fun to have around. Always curious.

I’m not allowed any favorites. If I show favoritism, all the others hold a grudge against me. (Until I deliver more meally worms) I’m hoping little Jave grows up to be just like my Rocks-Anne

I think it's around 20\25 all B.H. and one Turkey, royal palm. Something got into the greenhouse where we have them every winter. How the turkey survived, I have no idea. We are giving her to someone that also raises Heritage birds.

How many did you have at the peak?

Rocks-Anne is a great lady.

I'm all good. Thanks, Alex

All good, Scrambles. This is why I generally choose to go with older birds.

I think that’s why I’m reluctant to get chicks.

When we first started this journey, we had 100 plus birds. We had ducks, turkeys and chickens that free ranges during the day and got locked up at night. We still had a lot in 2018 and early 2019. We are finding it harder to wonder around the property and with me and my issues, I can't go out during the day like I used to. We have between 4-6 orders for our birds in the spring , He doesn't like to talk about the losses, but it comes with the territory.

I won't do them that little again ~ not without a very different set up.
