Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[GregnLety]

Good for Maya… as for Stupid 2 time to nip those na-nas!!! (It’s our new anthem here ) it’s always the small ones that are the most trouble. It’s like they are compensating for something. I am done with hormonal males… done!

I took about four direct butts and at least as many attempts at horning on the walk home from the house build today. A few times I had to drop the lead to keep my feet because Arduinna was getting pissed at him too and wrapping us both up. This resulted in several 75’ running start to some of those head butts. The boy bits are coming off ASAP. If that doesn’t work then he’s going to end up at camp kenmore. Jimmy is not being a good boy.

My wife won't eat goat but I will. I was stationed in Korea for a year and they eat dogs so I've probably had dog too. Hillbillies will eat almost anything

mugs (only thing missing is the height indicator....)

Yes, he actually posed yesterday....wind had knives in it, though.

Jess redefined 2fer

And both sides again

Storm posed a bit too

And a bonus:

Thing was up by the house with them. Since her meanderings in the horse pasture, she's gotten some confidence. Nothing that far (thankfully), but lots more across the yard.

I have to agree with that. Except Squirrel, my daughter loves it, me not so much.

In the midst of the breakfast rush is definitely not the time to try to get a picture of Chiquita's new wing barring that is showing up. I did get a couple though to show the new development in her feathers. She is honestly not a straight buff silkie that she was advertised as. It is ok though, I'm very happy with her.

I've only had her for almost 2 months and I think she looks much better then when I first got her. Here she was on her 2nd day home.

Happy Mugs Monday from Basil this morning.

And finally, the 3 Grannies. Supposed to be Cinnamon Queens, but I suspect EEs. They will also be 2 weeks old tuesday and are the smallest of the 7. I will not know what they really are until their adult feathering comes in and they lay the first eggs. They do look a little more red/orange in these pictures tonight.

Imagine landing a plane in those conditions?

Not a good idea at all.

Only a big 747, landing at Heathrow , I watched through the window as the wings flexed at touchdown and seemed to be only a foot off the ground - I was sitting on the 'wind' side so already tilted towards the ground

Now I sit in an aisle seat so I don't see these things!!!! Hahaha

I always used to sit on the aisle. I don't want to know.

She does look at lot better. You have done well with her.

I love her wings!
