Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Thats all very interesting. Im having a hard time absorbing much though so not really able to go look just book marking.

Yall. My uncle is dying. He had an aneurysm from his heart down to his groin. Were gonna loose him. Ive been crying so much and tryn to take my mind off of it w the site. Tryn to boil and peel the 600 eggs too. I tried to go on a trip up to them in Branson Missouri but theres just no way. As i was preparing i realized it just cant be done. Would put way to much hardship on my mostly very young family members.

Ill still be here clicking away but if im not emotional then im kinda numb and cant absorb anything.

So, so sorry to hear that. Sounds like you are close. I am sure he knows you are there for him even if you can't make it to Missouri.

I like posting pictures of the chickens here. If nothing else it gives people some idea of what their lives are like. I've got thousands of pictures. I hope nobody minds if I post a few random pictures, some with comment.
You could appreciate the omnivorous nature of chickens better perhaps by the look of Mel.

Even in her less threatening posture she looks the part.

Oh Turk, I’m so sorry. My younger brother died of an aortic aneurysm when he was 29 so I feel your pain. Please PM me if you would like to talk, I wish I coułd give you a big hug IRL.

Lucy LOVES blueberries, she even found the blueberry bush I planted for her and Emily and stripped it before the Lorikeets came back! Charlie, however, will turn her beak up at a blueberry, she prefers strawberries.

On the discussion of meat, they all love it, the little predators! I don’t feed them chicken if anyone puts it in the chook scraps bucket, it just feels wrong. I’m sure they’d devour it thòugh! Greens they completely ignore, unless it’s a hanging iceberg lettuce. Then they absolutely shred that.

They're funny aren't they. They all love the wine grapes that grow here. When the grapes are ripe and falling at openinng up time they go right past their normal breakfast and head for the terrace looking for grapes.
I bought some eating grapes once on a whim; the chickens weren't interested.

Somebody implied I just had a nestbox in my house for effect.
It seems to be working. Here's todays applicants. They all laid an egg.

They're very confident! If I were a chicken, I'd lay my eggs in such a nestbox because it's so safe.

Time to Fly the Coop

It was too much for the littles today. Maleficent led the charge first. I opened the big run door today when I took them a breakfast snack. Mal decided that the 2 feet in snow to the sunflower seeds left behind by the song birds was worth it.

Next thing I know this one was knocking on the backdoor.

Next thing I knew these two showed up

Lilly was not willing to leave the small band with no snow around the coop.

Eventually Lilly could not stand the thought that others were getting special food and she was not. After a few flights, (anything to avoid touching the snow) this was the sight at my back door.

I decided to shovel the deck for them. So they all stood in front of the door looking in. I have never gotten the picture from this angle before.

After eating, mealy worms, cracked corn, and cheese Itz, Lilly and Hattie decided it was nap time.

Right now Lilly is trying to figure out how to get back to the coop without stepping on the snow. She does not seem happy.

Poor baby.

I just checked coop cam, Maleficent is roosted already. The others are still trapped on the deck at 5:00 pm.
