Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Lexicon]

They were bed to be cold hardy and their feathers are gorgeous.

I agree, they are gorgeous!

If they were as big as the brooder, that was a big growth spurt!

You can see why I had to ask

Late Night Snacker

I think Sylvie has some Hattie in her. I caught this at around 11:40 pm last night.

Giant Chicks Roam at Midnight!

Seriously, her sweet face at 2.12

I believe that @Shadrach Has a "told you so" to his credit on Phyllis as well.

Yep. That's a chat I do recall.

I agree, they are gorgeous!

I think so too

Thank you! So far, Ruby is doing very well. Her stance is a lot better without that giant bulge between her legs. This morning I tubed 65mLof fluid with a tiny bit of baby bird formula in anticipation of getting a return call from the vet saying we could come in. Then I tubed another 60mLof just warm Pedialyte after we had been home for a little bit. I’m doing my best to set her up for success. So far, so good. I will continue to tube fluids. I’m not too worried about her eating, as I think she’s doing that just fine.

Oh that's good news! What the vet say? Anything new?

Yes they would roost. Yes they are sleeping on top of the plate. It is 78°F (25.5°C) in the room they are in. I have not seen them use the heat plate in some time. Now it is not 78°F outside at night so that will change when I move them outside.

I may have missed a post. How long before they start sleeping in the Cluckle Hut?

Bob, just don’t feed them after midnight, they might turn into gremlins! Oops too late, they already are. (Very cute feathered gremlins)

Now @BY Bob is going to think that I see his beautiful new chicks as gremlins. (I don’t see them as gremlins by the way) but they look like trouble to me.

Have the sweetest of dreams źzz.

Good night Alex and jaffar

Not too many people would sleep with their rooster! But cats and dogs seem acceptable? I don’t have a dog or a cat, so, what’s the difference? Ps. Can anyone set their cat or dog to exactly 05:30 am? ,,,,, well? (I thought not) I will keep with my roo, thank you!
