Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Surely not that small Bob maybe a fairy chicken but they don't exist, do they?

Oh the little people exist and of course they have little chickens!

Something I Never Thought I would See!

Betty flew into the coop door today at roosting time. I have video from both inside and outside the coop. You need to watch closely because it happens very fast. Here is where to watch for the impact with each video.

Quite possibly the craziest chicken related thing I have ever seen.

Good grief!
Was she confused by the window do you think?

You could move them now that it is dark.

I am trying to decide whether to do that or not.

We too had a mild Autumn and mild start to winter, very over cast... I think it has been a topsy turvy weather year throwing everything into disarray.

Re: head lamp - aren't they awesome!

Head lamps are brilliant

Yep. They're not great fliers but it doesn't stop them trying!

I'm headed out in a minute to move the heater and bring in the water.

Into a door! Where was she hoping to land?

I would love to see a fairy

My big worry before is she was roosting all on her own. Now she is with Minnie I am less sure what the best thing to do is.
- Bring her in
- Bring them both in
- Leave them be where they have chosen to roost
