Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

At least they love to give you attention. They could ignore you.

(Sometimes, attention hurts)

Well, it’s done. I went into town (with my church friend) and put on two back tires to replace the ones that were vandalized. My friend knew the shop owner, and the slightly used tires I got (better than the ones I brought in) were replaced. When I asked how much?$ he just smiled and said “have a nice day “ I didn’t have to pay a penny. Then my church friend took me out to lunch (on him) yep, a very good day today! Also got 5 eggs from the chickens today too.

You have very good friends!

Question: do you think that hens get angry at us, when we take their eggs away?

Who, mine? No way, he’s outside. And he’s too much of a scaredy cat to pick up.

No, Jaffar.

 

[rural mouse]

Thanks! But how am I supposed to check his wings if he’s very skittish? I can get to about 1 foot from him no problem, any further and he’s gone.

Roosting after dark....when he's sleepy

And just is wrong with that? Yes he’s pampered, so what!

He's pampered, beloved, spoilt, and sweet. And we know you and him well enough to know just how much he is. And you both love every moment of it...until he decides he wants his girls....

Thanks. Starting tonight please.

Hands off, cameras off after all the girls are inside with doors closed. I got yelled at when I looked at Jessica this evening. I didn't even try to touch. She's gotten paranoid (over just the 1 day of attempted handling). Stubborn girl. If she could hatch based upon determination alone....she'd more than double the size of my tribe...

Dropped something.....that shattered.....on the grass....it wasn't even that cold out! sub zero (F) is expected breakage. 25?! have also cracked windshields with defroster on cold mornings.

It is the one hole in my chicken viewing. I am very upset that I broke the mount.

Super glue and duct tape: the modern bubble gum and baling twine.

Don't be guilty! Be proud that you've lived somewhere warmer than where I live! LOL! We're getting a blizzard today!

We're getting the southern edges of it.
