Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

I used to love Benny Hill as a kid. Didn't understand most of the jokes though.

Me neither. It was just silly enough. Once I got older though........

Marvelous ending to a ridiculous show. I always loved his songs.

Oh I had forgotten that one.

That is a beautiful place. I could spend days there fishing which besides the horses and chickens is my passion. I wish you the best Alex on this new adventure, you deserve happiness.

I'm heartbroken this morning, and I think before I change my mind I may need to list the silkies. I had to run down grandma's for a few hours yesterday evening and I left them out free ranging. Their little group had been doing so well and they are being accepted by the rest of the flock. My dad and brother were here so I didn't worry about no one here. We finally got back at the edge of dark and they were by the coop ready to go in. But one of my smaller ones was missing and my tiniest one Poppy has a slight limp. I searched for a hour after dark last night and could not find a trace of it, and prayed overnight she was hidden and would be there this morning. No luck, and after another hours search this morning she's gone. Poppy's limp is not bad and there is no visible wound so I think its a sprain that will heal with a few days of confinement. Every other chicken on the place is acting like nothing happened. I don't want to let them go, but, I just don't think they are going to do well free ranging and if something happens to another one it will be devastating.

Oh dear. I am so sorry. You think something snatched her?

Wow, That is spectacular. I suppose she needs a plane just to see other people.

This is a tough decision. I do not envy you.

Mugs Monday from the chick who keeps on fighting. She has resumed eating on her own.

@WhoDatChick does not believe that all chickens are cute. She thinks some of hers are not so good looking.

Proof!!!

And I’ll just go ahead and submit these for mugshot Monday
