Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

No one will fool me into eating that Vegemite stuff ever again.

You must've put too much of it on your toast.

Is Sydney Broody, for sure, for sure?

Someone was missing when I let them out to free range today.

She was still on the nest this morning but bolted when I opened the lid to check on her. She has been making some of the deep clucking sounds and puffing up but just not on camera for me. I'm currently watching how long she stays off of the nest. She is new to this so we shall see. If she holds through the weekend I may have to ask @CrazyChookChookLady for those fertile eggs.

I know, everyone else is breaking their hens and I'm hoping mine wants to hatch. Isn't the world a funny place. Here she is scooting off the nest this morning when I disturbed her.

I hope she gets to hatch! If not now, one day.

Well I agree Vegemite is a poor substitute for the British version - Marmite.

Vegemite is the best! Not like that awful Marmite or Promite stuff!

Promite! What is that about? Horrid stuff. And Marmite is too... beefy or something.

I think my dad ate Promite for a while, I couldn’t come at it. A toasted Vegemite and cheese sanga is the best!

Bit of a Marmite fan myself, but what on earth is Promite?

Oh no, you are thinking of Bovril. Marmite is yeast extract just like Vegemite. Nothing to do with beef.

I imagine you are somewhere off that "other" road that traverses the mountains. I think @LozzyR is not more than an hour or two away from us as well.

We may need to host a mini chicken convention for our Aussie chook mates some day!
MJ was going to head out Sydney way before the pandemic hit and Ribh knows her way around the area.

Sort of. I'm an eastern suburbs girl. I don't know the western suburbs well @ all. We were more the Puberty Blues crowd. I say meet in the Blue Mountains.

The flavour is a lot milder then vegemite. English SIL.
