Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

The powder is always pink?

I attributed the color to the photo, could be light reflections off surfaces like RC's clothing but actual pink, no, right, I never see pink dust. Due to the marigold extract in some feeds and other things it's possible one could see orange/yellow colors but pink is odd.

I would return that to the feed mill that doesn’t look right - unless it’s some sort of mold or fungus.

RC have you had this with your other ill hen? I would most definitely take a sample and contact the feed mill. If they don’t give you any satisfaction in what it is get it analyzed.

I have never seen such a colour with feed.

I thought that and I'm wondering why the pink colour

Or you could watch the most recent Alice in wonderland movie - it was quite violent for little old me

They should have named that movie “Alice in Malice “ it was horrible in my opinion.

Some of my friends, didn’t get the memo about “not making a fuss” phone calls and memes all morning. (That’s Bobo lifting her foot)

Awesome picture - I really need to figure out how to doctor photos like that.

I would never wish you a birthday

But an unbirthday wish could happen…

It works for me at first but I often wake up with a headache after a few hours of sleep . I have a linguistic question : if you make a strong alcohol with plants ( like thyme, or verbena...) Is it still called brandy ?

I guess that's a sight that must make you happy and sad at the same time .

Why would you need any excuse to post on your own thread such a beautiful chicken photo ? She is truly gracious, almost like some magical creature in a fairy tale!

I would maybe not say the same about those other Italian creatures of yours- that Gianna and that Juliette .

Cute moment : every morning when I go collect greens in the garden sweet pullet Léa comes to watch.

Yes very upsetting, I was just telling mum I need to get on a pipeline project soon - can’t afford to stay working at the company is have been hanging out at since Christmas.

The only one paying their way are the chickens! I get enough money from their eggs to pay for their feed hahaha! Awesome chickies

Add some tonic water and some lime….
