I enlisted some kitchen helpers today...

The sunlight was hitting Bean's feathers just right to light them up purple and blue!

Possibly, but I feel what I feel, thank God for Simon and Garfunkel music!

Sorry (not sorry) to preach, but what you feel likely will not be changed by a line on your resume in terms of rank or title. You've mentioned you saved some people's lives in your past work. I think your work these days when you patrol could conceivably also save lives. You were a true friend to your neighbor while she lived. You've also helped many chickens live great lives and you continue to do that. Remember these things. They all qualify as Hero achievements in my book!

Names for Phyllis' Subtribe

So far these are the names we have gathered for the new group of Polish that will be arriving shortly at Fluffy Butt Acres.

• The Babushkas
• The Pierogi Posse
• The Pierogi
• The Pretty Pierogi
• The Haluski
• The Haluski Hens
• The Haluski Hunkies
• The Polish Bureau
• The Mop Tops
• The Phyllistines

Does anyone have their own to throw in the hat?

The Phyllistine Babushkas works for me, Phyllistines for short!

I still like thinking of them as Phylli, diminutives of Phyllis.

I like that.

My Red is indeed rumpled! She’s been like that from day one. This is the first time that this farm has had a rent a hen program, and while I think it’s a neat idea in theory, now that I know more about hens I don’t think it’s fair to them, to be honest. The owners are really nice yet farm animals are just farm animals to them. They make sure they have the necessities and even free range their birds, I don’t think they are to in depth with chicken phycology! As I have discovered, chickens HATE change.

That is why I haven’t taken them up on changing out two of them for ones that will produce more eggs. They are all used to me and their flock now, I don’t care if they are free-loading.

I love the way you think. Great job putting them first.

So, is it going to be Fluffy Butt acres, and Phyllis’ pearls now? I’m just asking.

No commitment here to anything yet.
