Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Different color? or Different tone!

That is excellent! Well played!

Why was I setting on the back steps using zoom while taking pictures. This is how she greeted me when I came out the door. Warning taken Momma, I'm not coming any closer.

Princess from now on has to sleep in the other coop she's badly clumsy and the others are afraid of her at night, she is very possessive at food times only flexi can sometimes tell her to back off but at night even flexi keeps her distance.

As bad as it is we are working things out. She spends a lot of time with the girls and has had little adventures in next doors garden with the others, she rummages through the main coop during the day and hangs out on the perches.
In the old coop she has a good perch and prefers sleeping on that also there is another room it's all perfectly dry as it's been fixed really well

Today I was surprised too see that's she's starting to lay her eggs in this coop, so tonight she had lots of fuss and I've put treats out for her with her food for the morning. Another plus is she can open her door by her herself and doesn't feel she has to be around when everyone else is. It was funny this morning when I had cleared out the main coop and let the girls out she just threw open her door and gave me my orders to open the run.

This seems like a good solution for all concerned. I'm glad it is working out.

I am not afraid of any of my chickens. But If I were, it would be her. I have to mentally prepare myself for battle when it comes to doing anything for her when she is broody. I also need to invest in body armor as well.

Wow, she’s beautiful when she’s all puffed out like that. (More beautiful than normal)

She looks like a Karen for certain.

At the same time, I always feel a little sorry for my cousin whose name is Karen because she's a lovely person. Poor Karen. She hasn't changed her name yet but I wouldn't blame her if she did.

And she is a beauty , and such a good mama protecting her wee baby.
