Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[MaryJanet]

Of course someone is making money off of it, I didn’t take it as a criticism.
I do feel a bit stupid actually in a way. It’s because that from the earliest I can remember so much of our healthcare system has been subsidised (I had to have an emergency surgical procedure done 18 months ago (full gen anaesthesia and it only cost me in total the $9 medication to take prior to the op) so I work, pay taxes and it’s just what it is.
I guess hearing you guys over there need to shell out for ‘x, y and z’ is stunning to me and I realise how much I take our system for granted.
I know I haven’t articulated this well, I’m really drained, and worried. Easter holidays can’t come soon enough

Australian Medicare is fantastic. I don't bother with health insurance at all, it's not worth it.

If my young ones go broody will you ship to Aus?

If I could, I would!!

All looks good. I’m waiting on a final flight check of my landing gear, then I’m off to California, perfect conditions for flying tonight. Lots of work to do tomorrow at home (and I want to see my chickens again)

There isn't anyone really RC. The thing is, it's my responsibility and I just wouldn't feel right passing it on to someone else. She isn't getting better and neither Gloria or I think she will. She was bad today and I had to set her to rights a couple of times.

I'm so sorry Shad. She is a grand old dame but I know you will do what is best.

I was wondering where you were!

Thanks, Kris! Been missing you but know how it goes on the farm

Originally I wanted some Wyandottes, but when you hatch a mixed flock you never know what you'll get. We decided that we have enough room for six and will get wyandottes later. Here are my beloved Ees.

Cinnabar who was the alpha hen of her research squad.

And Creamsicle, who was at first apprehensive, but now loves sleeping in my hand.

Aurora's new minions or successors of Maleficent?
