Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

I am happy to report that Dotty beat the crap out of my (bare) ankles when I went into the Chicken Palace to give fresh water to everyone.
That chicken is nuts! But I prefer her nuts to mopey, so I am happy.

I am not sure what has me more wondering. Nutty chicken? Or the fact you can wander around with bare ankles... Wish it was hot enough here I can do that!!!

Need pics of that chicken for sure!

Three useless roosters apparently. SOMEONE COME GET HER!

Sometimes it's: GET HER OUT OF MY NEST SITE!

Rain Rain Go Away

As I said earlier today, it rained and rained today. Flood watches are up it rained so much.

I eventually left them out. 1 out of 5 hens had the good sense to remain indoors when it rained hard. The other 4, well watch the video.

Sydney sheds water pretty good. She walked around in her best wild turkey imitation with her tail pointed straight down. She held up pretty good. You can see the other 3 yourself.

One great thing about them being soaked is that you can actually see how small Betty is. As you can tell from this overhead photo, she is almost exactly the same size as Phyllis.

I personally, don’t like seeing Betty that wet.

I feel the need to re share this video when there were 3 roosters here.

Wow! She has a great honk!
