Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Wow, he would need to give her a liter to get 3.3 g into her.

A chicken will easily drink 500ml a day.

It feels to me like there has been a row. Harsh words have been said and everyone is sulking.
Nobody is roosting close to anyone else.
Maggie took herself off to a nest box without even trying the roost. Diana got ‘her’ spot by the wall. Minnie is on the other roost by the camera and Dotty is technically sharing a roost with Diana but making it very clear there will be no snuggling.
I am not used to this. Normally they all snuggle together in a very strictly managed order on the big roost.
It all looks a bit sad and lonely to me.

It is one of the disadvantages of a large coop.

Rocks-Anne, fell asleep on my lap. Now I’m stuck here in the coop until she wakes up. Another disadvantage of a large coop!

We are all cooped up in the coop: View attachment 2929291

The tribe: "Just don't understand why Daddy's locked us in, and he's in here with us too. It's de-lovely out there in the rain! Stuck inside here is worse, rather be in Daddy's coop. No TV, no soft mattress in this coop, plus no Beakbook when he's hogging the phone like that. Didn't we see a movie in Daddy's coop called Singing In The Rain? There was a human dancing and having fun in it. Very sure he would like it!....Oh well, let's preen."
