Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Other than that droopy wing, Dakota seems just fine today! She won’t let me bandage her up today. I tried very hard. Redheads Gezz!

You will have to bind her just like in the video of Doc Pol. And you will need to keep her inside at night so she doesn’t hurt herself. Ok during the day to be scratching about, as long as no one bugs her. And don’t let Jaffar try to breed her

Maybe it would be easier to give it a try at night when she's asleep ? It's pretty difficult to handle a struggling chicken if you're scared to hurt her or that she hurts herself .

This is a good idea. I'm so glad you're caught up. It is great to have your thoughts as well.

In happier news :
We've finally decided on a name for this little chick/pullet, we just picked Lea. Friendly, simple and sweet like she is.

And the slow grower is still with us and still growing. It looks more and more like a pullet. However it is very human shy, and we can't bribe it with food as it gets told off by the three others. We're still not giving it a name so as not to tempt fate and we call it piou-piou, the sound chicks make in french . They are over eight weeks old now.

Well, one reason I'm glad I caught up backwards is Gucci! I felt much less worried reading the one post where you sounded discouraged, knowing that she did make some progress little time after!

I would like to thank Alex for the song in my ear, and me twisting my way doing chores last night and this morning. The horses enjoyed my gyrations

My pleasure Kelly!

For some reason, Chaco loves hearing your voice, so I play recordings of your posts to her! Go figure you crazy horse whisperer!

I love the name Lea! It suits her. I am excited to see the little one is surviving and growing.

I’m getting ready to fly up to Lake Tahoe this afternoon. Business never stops for me. About Dakota, she’s outside with the others like nothing is wrong with her at all. I thank God for that (for sure)!

Some of my most important phone calls, were interrupted by Jaffar’s cock-a-doodle doo!!

Pangoo used to sit outside the office when I had a teams meeting and crow non stop! I had to put him outside so I could hear!

Oh so darling I miss chicks but not practical for me right now.
