Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

She truly is. I find her feathers intoxicating.

She's much milder at roosting time these days. She only pecks Peggy 15 times or so.

I got a video of "dinner" time tonight for anyone interested. This is a ritual snack of a full feed scratch, with some cracked corn on cold nights, sometimes a bit of fruit or rice/pasta etc. we do this about an hour before sundown. You will see Alinta attack at the end.

I think she wants seconds!

Something for Fun

I was googling around the internet and I happened across this website discussing Wyandottes. A quiz popped up to align me with my perfect chicken breed. So obviously I took the quiz. Here is the website in case you want to do so as well. The quiz pops up when you access the site.

I would agree if she was anywhere close to finishing firsts!

I was so hoping that you would get EE. I guess this might be pretty accurate then!

Yes!! It definitely is for me!!

That is crazy! I have never seen anything like that before. That is very aggressive on her part. And after you gave her food too. Wow!

She has calmed down. is not like Peggy hasn't earned them pecking on Mary.
