Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[MaryJanet]

Come on Lily, get better please, your pet squirrel is running rampant.

I loved the Wonder Chicken story! It brought Richard III to mind for me, but maybe that's just me.

These three are very funny to watch.
"What's that then?"

They're very sweet.

I thought I was a RIchard III expert but I am missing the connection to WonderChicken. Help me.

Are grey squirrels vermin in the US or are they native? They are vermin in the UK, but because we don’t have squirrels in Australia, we used to feed the ones in our backyard peanuts still in their shells. They were so cute!

Maybe this is why chickens like eating fish?
I just love this. They have found the oldest chicken fossil (66.7 million years old). She is the ancestress of all chickens - and she is called Wonder Chicken.
Anyway, Wonder Chicken seems to have been a shore-dwelling bird. So maybe that is why chickens go so wild for fish - it is deep in their heritage!

They’re probably thinking exactly the same thing about you!

I was thinking it was a great name for, well, a chicken! Would it be weird to get a chicken just so I could call her Wonder Chicken? I guess technically she would have to be Wonder Chicken II.

Just the fact that archeology is awesome and you never know what they'll turn up next! I love it.
