Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Aussie-Chookmum]

I used the budgie step up method last night, but under Mary's belly and it was very easy.

Yes, that worked for me too when Edwina was roosting on a branch outside because Tsuki was playing at being Gandalf in the coop entrance.

I have no idea what you could be watching because imo we get everyone else's crap as well as making a ton of garbage of our own.

We only export the quality stuff Ribh.

Today I brought Kiko with me to the park to feed the wild chickens. This is just a small portion of the wild chickens that live at the park!

While we were ate the park, I took some photos of Kiko!

That’s like seagulls here if you have hot chips!! I’ll trade you haha

Or bin chickens. I've had an ibis take a chip from my hand when I wasn't looking.

I once had a seagull swoop over my shoulder and steal the tomato from my hamburger.

I must look like a soft touch.

I'm going to be sticking to building my Etsy shop for a few days so rant fodder should be minimal for a while. Don't worry though, I'll still find plenty of rant fodder later.

You will, of course, post a link once it's up and running?

I think this is the thing. We are traumatized more than they are because this is how their society works. They can be cruel but it would be necessary for their survival. We anthrpromorphize them into what we want to see them as not what they are. Therefore we are traumatized when Phyllis gets pecked in the face for no apparent reason.

I think you have that right. And you can sort of tell it from how once it is over they just go on with their lives. I forgot to take a picture but Maggie and Minnie were sitting companionably next to each other on the big roost only a few hours later.
It is a chicken thing I guess!

Extreme weather...????

I do think weather impacts them - I do notice different levels of energy and enthusiasm and even food preferences based on the weather.

I don't know that one either. Probably just as well...When I did my degree my minor was in theatre. I can be very pernicky & hard to please when it comes to drama.

I'm the same. I start something off on Netflix then quickly lose interest because as a series goes on it becomes ridiculous. I don't know about this code, because I never had the chance to see the last series.

I find it even harder to catch a good film.

Thanks for replying Marie. That all sounds so cosy and peaceful.

My animal's keep my sanity.

Don't laugh, that is quality entertainment. I watched an episode based just on taking the bins out to the curb. Quality stuff.

My goodness, I totally agree! Remember I was the one to put you onto it
It was a laugh face that this is the best we Aussie have produced lately, a cartoon
Wait until you watch ‘sleepy time’ I believe it is called, I was so happy sad.

And a big that Eve (and yourself) enjoys them! I’ve seen them all so many times and I’m still entertained. I like Rusty, and the terriers of course.
