Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RebeccaBoyd]

OK thank you. Now I'm throwing in the towel and going with @RoyalChick. I'm pretty sure she's a chicken!

Nope, she is a beautiful chicken. I admit myself there are only a few breeds I'm drawn to and can pick out, the rest are just chickens. Albeit pretty chickens. Bob's new candy corn girls have sorta sparked a interest in polish. I'm loving this color variety. But before I even start thinking about adding polish I have to have at least 1 Brahma. They have been on my list for a while now, and I wanted a Dark Brahma. Well the other day I stumbled across a color in Brahma that I didn't know about. Black, I NEED 1. That way I will have a Black Copper Marans, which with my hens they are mostly black, Black silkies, add in a Black Brahma, and for good measure a Black Cochin and I'll be set.
Look at these, Big, Black and with feathered feet and legs, they would fit right in.

The poop coop! This does look pretty small, i agree, but for those of you who dont know i freerange my chickens 3 acres + more. (Even though it matters less now cause its becoming winter) we are upgrading the coop soon! There is a dustbath inside, a mirror. A LOT of climbing activites + high perches, good ventilation but yes, we are insulating it for winter! A little behind the umbrella was their ACTUAL run that came was the coop, thats way to small! We are currently upgrading trying to have it much much larger! And when we get more chickens, we’re definitely gonna have to upgrade the nesting area To a grid. (And we have a park session right next to it! A perch, trampoline, many many perches, and a tree we are working on!)

Cable TV, Video games, Billiards table? I don’t see where you have any room for such necessities!

They are lovely !
I got an accidental Brahma due to a mix-up when I got my first chicks and I just love her! She isn't bossy, but isn't a pushover and knows her place within the pecking order... and she looks so darn cute when she runs! Hop...skip ...step!

Hi folks. I’m at work, so need to catch up later (got through some last night, but fell asleep). Quick updates here:

• Good thing I had tried tubing Flashy, as she had a large, firm crop this morning. Tubed ~15mL warm pedialyte, massaged crop a bit and repeated. I could hear her crop make those stomach growling sounds when I got things somewhat broken up. This might take a few days.
• I received notification that Ruby’s body was received at UC Davis. I spoke with someone this morning and they think I’ll receive a prelim by the end of the week.

aww! Our bantom darts when she runs! Head down, like a racecar and then the zoomies! Shes able to dodge anything in her way while holding that racecar run! It makes me laugh.
