Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

Another day has dawned. I have a house rule. If Jaffar starts up with his crowing, then it’s time for him to go to his ladies in the barn/coop. As much as I love his Cochin company, and he’s my little buddy, he has his rooster job to do. (And yes, he did wake the littles) so now it’s feeding time for them also.
So, good morning all you Fluffy Butt people.
For By Bob. I owed you the yacht pictures so....

Umm.....a rabbit hutch? Since your yard will be even more predator-proof!

Chick tax.
A late Mugs Monday....
The reason I moved the wide perch next to the edge, it's where they all wanted to be once they got brave enough to jump there. In the first picture I think that's Peanut and Hazel on the covered perch, and Butters grabbing the edge. Two weeks old.

It's not easy being youngsters, molts & bad hair days every day! Four weeks old.

They are so funny looking in their awkward teenage state that they remain adorable.

I got an email from the place I got Hattie, Maleficent, and Aurora from the other day. Here was their ad. I love the one on a skateboard and phone at the same time!

Winner Winner, Chickens get Dinner!

Guess who won the Chilly Coop Contest!

Post in thread 'Official BYC Winter Contest Series—Chilly Coop Contest' https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/official-byc-winter-contest-series—chilly-coop-contest.1438089/post-24075520

How nice! Congratulations! That WAS a really good post, pictures inside and outside. I particularly liked the chickens looking out at the snow from inside.

Where are those pictures! Come on now. I need to see that!

I never thought about taking a picture (walking stick in one hand, and chicken leash in the other) how could I?

I would like some steak with toast and honey. They are living well

I just made a mistake and told Aurora that. Now she feels put out that I don't treat them well enough.

You don’t? As my Italian Grandmother always said “whatza matter you?”

And then RC laughs at me.

Only because I have done the same thing myself a dozen times. Sorry, not meaning to be unkind. Just recognizing a fellow traveler along the highway to old age.
