Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Aussie-Chookmum]

ONE chicken is asleep in my bed, one more is on top of my TV STAND I guess I sleep on the couch tonight. Never accuse me of not loving my hens!

So... if the bed is occupied...you choose to sleep...on top of the TV stand before opting for the couch?

Hi folks. Cashew seems to have moved on from her broodiness. I know the water dips (I did get her belly once) were iffy, but it seemed to work.
Now Little Mill is broody. I took several videos and settled on this one to share. It doesn’t show the beach ball posture nor broody vocalizations super well, but I think she’s pretty darn cute! Millie is not ranked very high, and typically does not get in my lap. (Though she is very docile and tolerates picking up and handling quite well.) This was a surprise bonus of her going broody. She’s sleeping in a nesting box (without eggs) tonight, so I’ll have to rig something up for her tomorrow. I don’t have a wire crate (except a huge one meant for a large dog), so I might try to put a cookie cooling rack in the pet carrier.

Love her "bok, "bok" noises

you are silly! I slept on the couch. The birds both ended up sleeping on the bed. I can't believe they can poop that much. so today, I wash the sheets.

I was just wondering about the beatings.....

It was a bad turn of phrase only part that someone likes to remind me of. I believe I wrote "whenever she beats me up in the morning Mrs BY Bob makes coffee and brings me some".

@LozzyR She's better, she just ate a 1/4 can of Albacore tuna. and canned corn. she's a precious part of my flock, and I love her dearly! If only you could see her eyes looking at me, then you would totally understand!

That is great news!

@BY Bob in honor of all the pasta videos you’ve shared... Hoppy stopped watching “Magnum, P.I.” To mooch some dinner, so I had to oblige. And pause while I filmed (please excuse the mess, our Recycling Depot is still mostly closed due to Covid... it’s all clean and waiting to go out after dinner!)

I love it! She is looking good Kris. It is fun to watch them line those noodles up for quick swallowing!

So scary. Not cool at all to be driving under the influence. I’m glad nobody was hurt!

Its amazing no one was hurt. We were all lucky.

I love the deep cluck of the broody. She is beautiful. I love her coloring. Nothing like a hen in your lap!
