Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

It's been frosty this morning but the sun is out, we had a clear sky last night. Maybe our world is coming into peace with itself at last

I think mother nature has gone off the rails!

It was -28C this time yesterday morning, today it is -1C (oh blessed relief!), but short lasting relief, back to -25 by Friday, and a roller coaster ride for the next week at least....

I am looking into some sort of heating system for the actual roosts themselves. To help keep their little legs and feet and bellies warm.

So if anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it....

Here’s why my laptop is not working properly, maybe I have feathers in the cooling fan:View attachment 2957853

Oh dear , as an IT person I cringe. But then I remembered where my office is: in the barn full of dust and likely molds hahahaha!!

Ok chickies you're good to go! Keep sitting there!

My horses are no longer royalty in the civilization path!

This is a picture of the girl I'm picking up tomorrow evening. Now that everything is set in place I told Rosie about her. She want's to name her Wasabi, I'm not so sure about that. I will admit when I first saw the picture before I was told her age that comb scared me for a minute. But she's for sure a girl and even better if I want to look at it that way a proven momma.

I have been wanting to do this for some time now. I knew once I started doing this there would be no going back. So I am now diving in and I hope you all enjoy coming along for the ride.

First of all let me tell you how we view our flock as that will help you to understand why we treat them like we do.

Our birds are our pets and we treat them as such. We do not care if someone is not laying eggs. They are welcome to stay at Fluffy Butt Acres until they pass naturally. (Now don't go telling them that! I would hate for word to get out) We do thoroughly enjoy the fresh eggs.

I plan to tell stories from the past as well as from today. I hope you all enjoy and will share stories of your flocks as well.

Hi, I just joined and saw the the name of your place. My place is called Fluffy Butt Farm. I named it that because i call my dog Fluffy Butt. She is the heart of my place.

It is a balmy 20°F this morning so everyone is taking advantage and grooming outside.

OMG yes, autocorrect is terrible! Microsoft word will do that, I turn it off when I am working because it wants to correct my Canadian spelling of different words (anything ending 'our' esp! ie: colour, behaviour....) hahaha

Isn't there a Canadian dictionary you can select?

I hope you feel better soon (and that it's not Covid).
