Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Lady Clucks-a-Lot]

Do any of you know dog breeds that can protect chickens instead of trying to eat them? Our neighbor have a really fast dog, though it's never came over nor has it ever tried, but there's also coyotes and raccoons and I'm not that sure of my chicken's safety.

So, are they being held upside down in this position?

No. Their chest is on my forearm. Would you like for me to grab a photo or video?

That's what I think. I'm about to pull her off again this morning.

Yes, good call.

My border collie protects them, but wouldn’t be much of a threat to some predators. A great pyranees would probably make a great guardian.

Myrna looks like a very pretty hen.

Thank you
She is great, although she turns into Mean Myrna when she is broody!!!

I will try it on Jaffar today and let you know. (But I don’t think it’s going to work on him)

It didn’t work on Jaffar. He just looked at me as if to say (“what’s the matter with you, are you stupid or something?”) Oh well.

I don’t.

Jaffar is out helping me with the last of the cuttings I need to do today. He’s a good support supervisor. (I sure hope I’m doing the job to his satisfaction)
