Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

I deleted my complete account. It's the nastiest place on the web imo. Hugs for you.

So funny.
A work acquaintance once grabbed my phone when I stood up to make a presentation and opened an account on my phone under a made up name. So in a weird way I have an account. I have no idea how to do anything with it and I don't even really understand where all this posting happens. The only time I have used it is a couple of times when I wanted to look at a business and they didn't have a regular website but only a Facebook account - and even that was a less than fulfilling experience as it seemed to have much less information about the business than a website typically has.
I find the whole thing deeply odd.
I don't even know how to delete it!

Me and the family spent most of the day at the Royal Easter Show today.

Bad news I'm afraid. They were doing judging in the chicken pavilion for simply hours and had closed off most of the chickens so I couldn't get many photos. Sorry to disappoint my chicken friends.

The sebrights were super cute.

Youngest was very taken with the Silkies.

In good news, youngest entered 3 items into the craft competition and won first place in "Handstitched leather item" category!

Brilliant! Please give my congratulations!

Shame about the judging getting in the way of chicken appreciation.

I had one when I had teens all over the place. Redundant now & it was just annoying so I got rid of it. I'd much rather be here.

Today's wing spreads. They're looking really pretty. I'm thinking Creamsicle will feather wheaten.

They are on day 2 of amprolium. Bok is still drinking and will eat a little but as long as she is drinking now I’m happy.
Will their poop change while on the amprolium? Like after worming it can be looser?
Never treated with it before so want to know what to expect

It was loose before treatment, so you actually want it to start firming up! I hope she continues to improve!

Wow that's so cool!
I'm sorry you didn't get to enjoy the chickens, but thank you for sharing the pictures you were able to take!

That leatherwork is just gorgeous! Well done to your youngest!

This is what happens to Fat Bird.
Mostly normal but feet too close together but tail up and head up.

She can turn her head either way and stay balanced.
View attachment 2595017
Here she's taken a few steps and is reaching fro some grass. Head and tail starting to go down and she wobbles.
View attachment 2595010
She's got the grass, head low and her tail is very low now
View attachment 2595012
Head and tail coming back up.
View attachment 2595013
Head and tail still coming up and about to take a step.

Taken a bit of a step, wobbled and her tail drops.

She fell over. She got up again of her own accord and staggered over to my feet. I picked her up and sat her on my lap for a while. When she wants to be taken to the coop she makes a quiet escort call.

I’m going to miss Fat Bird terribly when she’s gone!
