Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[ChicoryBlue]

Can you clarify the end there - Hattie was with who besides Sylvie in the Hut? Sidney? Aurora? Interesting and nice, hopefully due to the urge to have the flock - all the flock - stick together!

Hmmm the laughing emojis I don't quite get. Do y'all think Hattie and Aurora were making mischief in there...or putting the hurt on Sylvie...while protector Lilly and Rooster Bob were away?

Them feeling lost enough they ran to Phyllis.

Response to the meme: turkeys CAN fly (wild ones, domestic ones cannot), very well in fact. Ben Franklin campaigned for them to be the national bird cause they're so smart too.

Yes I know, I have seen them fly

You use paper towels? I just use newspaper (there’s usually nothing important in print anymore anyways) and it gives the chooks something to read on the trip !

You all laugh, but it’s true!

Is it bedtime yet, I’m tired? but I still have to make another hotdog, and call Arizona and Dakota in for the night.
::Why do my chickens steal my food from me?:: I feed them very well, but they always want more, more, more!

Where was Phyllis exactly then? Bob doesn't say!

Sounds like you had a full day! @BY Bob have a restful evening!

I am cooking my turkey tomorrow, my DH works 24 - 29 so we will have our 39th turkey dinner

hahahaha

Thanks so much! It's been a lot.

How did you find my all time favorite episode of WKRP. I hope you have a wonderful turkey day.

My last thought for the day. What to get 12 chickens for Christmas? I’m thinking about chicken pajamas, maybe knitted caps. Amazon has a whole bunch of ideas for the chickens. I will check around BYC for that special gift as well.

The wild ones are the only kind we have around here. They are very cool. They like the mountainside meadows and forests for foraging, it's an easy takeoff from the ridgeline into the wind and down over the hillside when they're disturbed. They will even trot a ways along a woodland path to get there if they think there's time without flying (long necks up, looking back to check). They roost in the tallest maple and oak trees along the ridgeline. We once discovered something in a protected meadow making sounds like coyote pups but it was turkeys all gathered with several leaping and flapping at each other. We observed from a distance hidden in a shrubby treeline and turned back to let them be.

Yeah, but paper towels aren't as slippery...I have transported littles as well as adults.
