Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Shadrach]

She looks like she'll let you get close enough for a photo though. Pretty girl!

I think my favourite photo of yours is of the three pullets sitting in your IKEA chair.

Oh arrr, it's a very cute shot but I don't think it's my favorite.

 

[Shadrach]

Wow. How on earth did you find her? I was going to ask where you all find your rescues. I am thinking ahead to expanding my flock I was looking for rescue opportunities but there is nothing within 100 miles of me and I have never met any chickens wandering free around here.

It's a long story. She was standing by the side of the track on the East ridge as I went by on the bike one day. I think she was waiting for a bus.

She is so cute!

She's a strange looking hen. She's an out of coop nest builder and so far I've been able to find her.

She is a beautiful looking chicken! I dunno, the naughty ones are often the most interesting to know & lots of fun too.

I must admit, I'm rather fond of the uncooperative chickens here.

Oooh. You have my sympathies. I have one of those!

I Think I Will Help Myself

After all that has happened, I could not say no or run her out of the house. At least I knew she was safe.

Next up a nest in the dining room for them to lay in!

I couldn't and wouldn't have them in the house if I didn't have the floor for it and the climate that allows me to keep the door open all day.

Sadly my favourites here are the naughty ones too... Bit like loving Bad boys & wicked women...

I think for the most part, we have become a throw-away society, with just about everything being disposable.

Given how long I've had some of my stuff it's no wonder I don't quite fit.

Do tell. I love my headlamp, but I had to buy a second one since the first one crapped out after a few months. I’d like a good quality one. I seriously use mine almost every single day.

I can't find my model on the net but the company is called Pretzl.

I love mine it has rechargeable batteries that I charge from the USB port on my computer. It doesn’t seem to have a brand - it just says ‘headlamp’ on the strap. I use it all the time in winter. Chicken chores, firewood collecting, damn did I leave my gloves outside and it’s going to snow checking.
