Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[MaryJanet]

I've been feeling really worn out today but took a nap and then started cleaning my act up.
Hope too see you all tomorrow.

Good night

Sleep tight Marie

One more thing on the forage seeds… I would not sow it without covering it with a grow box or something… That’s how my flock got fat.

Thanks Michelle, I’ll have a look.

Looks like at least one fluffy butt is molting

Perfect answer

I'm really sad to read about your dog. I'm so sorry

Thanks Marie.
Sleep well.

Me too! But I wasn't surprised Shad knew of it. He's quite interested in contemporary music.

She's been around a while. The main reason I know about her is she's British.

That is the the largest pupil I've seen on a chicken....are you sure she's not high?

Australian australorps have much bigger eyes than the American style australorps.

Just popping in to say Hi! I’ve not forgotten about everyone… I got a new phone and have been having a really hard time getting on line with it (buying a signal booster thing, very soon) I wanted to let everyone know we are mostly doing ok, and working on raising some more funds to get the house up. FIL’s friends now want cash in addition to lots of Goat meat for life, thanks to yet more family drama. I’m getting close to having the house at least weather tight for winter, I hope.

Chicken news… we have some more new chicks and I’m getting more hatching eggs from my friend. My roosters can’t really cover the flock right now and all my Brodie’s keep trying to sit on dud eggs. We lost Cass to a raccoon, and my friend lost 8 of his hens to a mink (we eventually got the mink trapped and taken care of).

Arduinna keeps going into heat and attempting to go find herself a boyfriend. So we are now on leash at all times outside until she’s actually old enough to breed.

Our Summer markets have resumed, so we are quite busy with sausagemaking. And I’m now selling all my eggs through our general store, which is helping keep things more manageable.

I hope everyone is doing well, and that I can get our internet situation worked out soon and get back in touch more regularly.
