Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Now you do as I already paid it (and commented on her speed.....so this is likely to create another owed tax.....

SHRA Tax

I put them on vitamin B yesterday. I've seen other signs. She is walking but something has me unsettled so I figured let's try and address it. You must be seeing the same thing I am.

Yes, she is walking, but favoring that leg, and a bit unsteady. I'd describe it as not walking confidently or very willingly. The way strong young chickens all full 'o beans should!

Sooooo Alex tell Jaffar that it gets cold here... Really really cold! I think Branch and Ezzie get more snow than you.....

But my gals might enjoy a couple palm trees sent up here....

I actually sent a friend 3 palm trees to Minnesota. They didn’t last long (come to think of it, neither did that friend)

It really was too much to ask to just have a normal pullet raising process.

The palm trees? Or the coconuts, or the wine?
Not enough coconuts. They need swallows to migrate them here!

It's true that your couch is a great proven hatchery. what's not for Bubba to like? He's being a good rooster. You have the Hottest Coop In Town now, all his best clientele expect him to take them there!

Jaffar is not amused!

I like Ezzie for a boy, I don't see the problem. They could call him Ez for short if they want!

Call him “E” that’s even shorter!

My EE girls are broody. Got 2 sharing a nest now.

It's not a nest it's a corner of the coop floor because neither will lay or sit a nest.

Maybe it's just chance but I find it odd there was Bernadette and now Gucci. Are they on medicated feed? Is there way too much medication in there these days?

An Observation and an Opinion

Observation
Lady Featherington looks for a place to roost at night before cuddling. The big roost is too high and no one else is interested in doing so. Last night she tried to roost on their water dish and tonight she tried to roost on a camera.

I'm going to build them a roost and put it in the coop for them. They are not using the coop at all right now. I find that very strange. I've never had pullets not use the coop before.

Opinion
I hate the quarantine. I truly hate it. It is a huge pain in the butt going in and out of it and I cannot interact with them at all. I only saw them today to change out their water. I also feel like it delayed me picking up on things and treating Gucci.

I hate it.

I will give it 3 weeks and they are moving to the Cluckle Hut and big run.

3 weeks.

Because I hate it.
