Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

Essentially. I am pretty certain they will be fine.

As I remember you flocks combs, none of them are overly large. I never put Vaseline on Patsy's comb even though I did Daisy's, the greatest hen ever. Patsy never lost any comb to below 0°F temps, nor did Lilly. I am debating Hattie's but it is not much bigger than Patsy's. Daisy's comb was enormous.

Frankly after I put this collage together, I don't plan to even do Hattie's comb. Its smaller than Patsy's.

Lovely ladies!
Maggie has a pretty floppy comb. On the other hand she almost always buries her head in her feathers when she sleeps.

Straight up cracked corn works great and it won't kill them for a couple of days.

I have never been sure what cracked corn actually is, I will look for some. I have a few days - still in the high 20s at night right now.

Thank you for that. It was just so jaunty.

That's a pretty nice comb. It looks similar is size to Patsy’s. Maybe a little bigger. It is moisture that causes the most frostbite. You do not have that problem.

That makes me a little sad. I especially appreciate your thoughts.

Hmmm that's probably because I'm only sharing the substantial ones and mot the stream of conciousness ones

I don't think I can argue with that.

It is so special. I am still teary eyed when I look at it. What a wonderful gift.

Let's mark the date. It's a gesture worthy of remembrance.

You have some great Bitsa's for sure!
