Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RebeccaBoyd]

So would a goat! just saying

True, but can you ride a goat? And goats headbutt you. Although goat milk does have its benefits. You could just get one of each.

I will bet, everything I own, (Except the Cessna) that I have the best rooster in the entire world! Jaffar never poops in the house. Sleeps quietly and comfortably where ever he stays for the night. He's always clean, groomed and polite to his many ladies! I love Jaffar so very much.

Hi friends. Most of you know we are renters (in the Great Recession, we lost a luxury home we built because the market crashed before we could get certificate of occupancy to sell, but that’s another story.) I have fully embraced the humble life. I grew up in a very comfortable family in a wealthy town, I’m educated... I never imagined myself in this position. However, I am grateful. I can survive on very little, and I really feel I have my priorities straight. I love this rustic setting with chicken poop everywhere, overgrown pasture and putting my dirty bare feet right on the earth.

However, renting has its drawbacks. The woman who owned this property passed away recently. I’ve been dreading this day, as I LOVE living here. Her nephew, the primary beneficiary, would like for things to stay the same, but there are multiple parties on the trust, and they may eventually have to sell. I will continue on embracing every moment. We have every local predator, and the place is ridden with termites and sometimes rats. But I love it and wish I could buy it.

I want my beloved birds to live out their days here. And my doggo. She’s a border collie... total country dog. Most importantly... my kids, especially my daughter. This has been home for twelve years, and she is seventeen. Please send your thoughts and prayers that we get to stay here a long time to come.

Oh that is very stressful for you. I am so fortunate to have been able (eventually) to buy this place that I love so much - it gives me great joy and I can only imagine how ungrounded I would feel if I knew I might have to leave.
I really hope you get to stay or find a way to find somewhere else that is even better!

I played the US stock exchange in 1980 and lost $80,000 but gained it all back and more on my venture in Brexit ! Thank you Brits!

I would have coffee too, but I'm covered in chickens at the moment

Talking of magpies

That was astonishing. I thought these things were scary though. I'm confused.
