Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

I wanted you to know that I have put thought into this response as it has.

Phyllis would be agitated no matter if some was in the box or it was empty. I truly believe that she does not want to lay her eggs there. I'm certain that @Shadrach Is right when he says they prefer the ground to lay on. At least as far as Phyllis is concerned. She has been trying to find a spot on the ground since she joined us and started laying.

But she hasn't chosen the ground - I thought she was in a planter. Did I get that wrong?

You would think by now, Phyllis, the prima Donna, would have others laying eggs for her!

Oh now that is funny!

There are no crickets, mice, or even cats here. My velociraptors are diligent in owning my property (I guess I’m next to go)

You are on top form today!

I just put marbles in the standard tractor supply chick waterer. I can't find a photo of it right now. I'll post one if I do.

I was wary of marbles when I got the road-runner chicks because I thought they might be slippery and risk a leg getting broken. So I used a few rocks instead.
When I observed them however I don't think they would ever have drowned in the water bowl - they grew like weeds so within 24 hours I was no longer worried of that risk.

The worst thing about being a bachelor, is I’m eating a leftover burrito from last night. (But I added a serving of cottage cheese with pineapple) but still, yuck!

And she laughed at my predicament!

Show off

Amber is soooooo moody these days. It's really humid today maybe this is the reason today. Plus she has one feather sticking out, could this be hurting her?
