Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[LozzyR]

There’s a local short story contest (750words) thats closing in 2 days. Topic is ‘the gift’.
I’ve known about it for a month but haven’t had that moment of cohesion with an idea that fits the topic.
I’m considering writing something based on Penny and Bok. It could turn out totally lame but it could turn into something decent.
My first feathered ladies, and so many intangible gifts that we have given each other that it might just work...
I have a lot of emotion going on with Bok right now, I need to do something with it

That sounds perfect. You could write about how your chickens have given you the gift of humility, joy and poignancy. And wisdom maybe. How about a new circle of friends, because you joined a chicken forum?

That will fit when it’s new friends, for Bok and me when I joined here! Same time!
I’ll share once I’m done, each tiny snippet story is the gift something, that’s my angle, with an overall gift of what they have given me
Thanks Lozzy

I love this idea. Think of "the gift" which they gave to you or each other.

With few exceptions. Sorry

How are you this morning?

How did she get away?!

She didn’t get away. She just went into this rabbit hole and couldn’t turn around to get back out. It’s behind the barn/coop and I have buried it since then.
