Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[bgmathteach]

Correction
In many prior posts I have referenced that my remaining Princesses are not, shall we say well endowed, in the fluffy butt department. And while it is true that every single one of my sadly departed Princesses sported spectacular fluffy butts, I have to admit that Diana and Bernadette are really not too shabby on that front. Or rather rear.
So, here is wishing everyone a happy Fluffy Butt Friday from Diana and Bernadette. Note Bernie’s single white feather accessory.

You know, they may not have 'Matronly fluff", but they do have 'ample enough fluff! Lovely shots, RC!

You’re up early! Or maybe late for you!

So will you get a new prop for her?

Not necessary at this time. But I can find it cheaper in Winnipeg than California. But that’s a flight to Canada

Those are pretty spectacular.

This is what a tiny Fluffy bum looks like. Those are much more ample than this one.

eh hem, Mr Bob...
The correct terminology is 'Svelte'

I have a svelte bottom, not a tiny bum! (she says with an aristocratic British accent)

Please DO try to use the more complimentary, less vulgar terminology, Dear! After All, I DO wear Pearls, you know.

The video is longish its about three and half minutes. I have zero knowledge on how to edit sorry. Hopefully you guys enjoy it anyway

Loved the video! I didn't find it too long. It looks like they have a lot of space and ventilation and that you will have possibilities to either change things if you need, or add some more chickens. ( not that I'm telling you to).

What kind of climate do you have ? I was wondering about using OSB panels outside but they seem to be very well sheltered in the case of your coop.
And not on the video but I would love to see more pictures of Brownie, I think she's turning out very pretty.
Do you have any news of the people you rehomed the two cockerels to by any chance ?

Why Winnipeg? Because an acquaintance I met is parting out her airplane. Same model as mine.

It's a good rainy day here. Misting now with heavier rain as the day progresses. ❤

I am looking at a government of Canada page that says fenbendazole is available over the counter (ie without prescription) for pigs, cattle and turkeys in Canada.

It's a common dog dewormer too, available otc here but am unsure about Canada.

Thank you Introvert 1000%, so doing that wasnt easy, I had post it fast before I “chickened” out.

I live in southeastern Ohio our temperatures can range from the mid 90’s down into the 10’s in the winter but averages are pretty reasonable overall. We are in the same weather zone as BY Bob as a point of reference. In addition, right behind the coop is a large hill which serves as an effective wind break. The OBS should serve well in our climate I think and I will be painting it and the coop to extend its life next summer.

Brownie is my FBCM she is a beautiful pullet, I got very lucky. I hope to have one of the hens hatch out some of her chicks someday. I left room for more chickens for sure but I also have a-lot to learn so Ill take it slow.

No news on the boys yet, I go to Rural King alot though so hopefully I will see the gentleman (an employee of RK) that took them and ask after them.
