Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

If I hadn't just bought Mrs BY Bob new sneakers yesterday..........

Bob, she needs a pair of those chicken booties!

I need to see how many pages we average a day. I might check that out.

My sense is it was ten a day, now it's definitely more. There's one pattern I saw when I'd get caught up, five each morning and evening. But now 10- 15 a day, more on weekends or at times. We all want to say something! Sorry @LozzyR, I'm adding right now!

I got some pictures yesterday for tax:

Hazel on lookout as usual. She stands pretty much stock still so is great for photographing.

Peanut wanted some of the action

Peanut, and Butters inspecting the top of a cement block of the new 6' perch in the moveable greenhouse frame run

Butters with the golden cape and that looks like Hazel's nape

Somebody wanted a close-up,that's Butters behind her

All I could think to say this morning was “ok, ok, I’m up already “ as I hear Jaffar starting his magnificent Elvis impersonation!

I didn’t know that Butters was a structural engineer? Go figure

(Probably studied at the same school as my Beethov-Hen )

Wow - that cape is quite something! Gorgeous.

Then @Ribh laughs at me.

I put in a laugh emoji only because the issue you're having is mine too and the emoji is spot on!

I can tell them apart by sight or voice now, and I want to tell their eggs apart too. It's an important health issue, if there's any problems with egg laying, and it seems an important general indicator for them in general. But finding out who is laying what is hard, and their eggs follow a general pattern, but it's not unchanging. It takes hanging out and keeping an eye on who goes in to lay and when, over a few days, and collecting eggs immediately. But the eggs change too, and I couldn't tell you for sure who laid what on any given day without having seen them do it. Maybe Jaffar could keep a little log book for you?

I’ll ask him, but I don’t think he can write well (with those feathered feet)
