Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

We throw some out for the doves, and I give them to my girls once in a while. And yes, I have put sunflower seeds into my fodder. Chickens love them. We have wild sunflowers growing where they will be free ranging..we'll see if the plants get started even a fourth of the way this year. I love growing the giants. When the huge flower starts to drop, and the seeds are ripe, I break the head in half and put it out for the chickens. Lasts a while...weeks. These are very large and beautiful sunflowers I grow.

I love sunflowers. Do you have any photos.?

Thanks ACM! I had about 27 registrations but only about six people turned up... There seemed to be some issues with Zoom kicking people out and Eventbrite giving out the wrong time. I also had connection issues towards the end. I’ll be running it again regularly so hopefully I’ll get more people.

Aside from the technology, I'm certain that you were great!

Wow, I’m tired today. I went to my neighbors house and cleaned up for her. Fed her animals and mine. Cleaned her coop and mine. Went to town for groceries for her, and myself. Repaired her broken gate. Talked to my other neighbor (the one with the roosters) and found out his intentions. (Raising them for sale and not cockfighting) now I will be working into the night, designing the new coop for the littles. (After I make myself some dinner)

It's good to have a full day. I always sleep well after one like that. Good for you.

And I guess, a tomato is a fruit too.

Some people won't let anything go.

Oh I don't know - I imagine lizards are a lot of protein.

True, I just dont know, what about bones? I hope she will be ok

Here’s something else unbelievable. My hen Rocks-Anne, just now swallowed a 5 inch long lizard. I didn’t think that was even possible!

Phyllis tried to eat a giant night crawler today. She got it 1/2 way in and could not finish. So she

pulled it back out and pecked into smaller pieces until she ate it all!
