Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Damage!

It looks like Glynda caught frostbite in the last cold snap. It has taken a few days for it to show up but it has the potential to take all of her comb tips. Only time will tell. I have some hope since it has taken this long for it to show up.

No one else is any the worse for the cold snap. Just Glynda. This will be the first time one of mine has ever suffered from frostbite.

I suspect, if it doesn't get hit again this winter, that they will be fine. I am pretty sure that ?Minnie? Dotty? points that looked the 'pale/swollen' like this eventually recovered, and only the one with the real blackened tip lost part of it. Maybe @RoyalChick can confirm.

It does look like a fair amount, but, again, it seems relatively mild in terms of depth of damage.

Happy Friday

Look closely at Phyllis' bum and you can see that she is starting into the frosted tips trend. Last year it was the one off colored wing feather. This year she is spring frosted tips. All you fashion conscious hens out there should take note.

All I want to do is to get into my plane and fly away …. Far away from here. And take Jaffar with me!

What about all the Rocks!

The hen passed a bit ago.

So sorry for both you and her!

What about all the Rocks!

I make sure that the runway is clear of rocks, so I can fly safely!

That is such a lovely remembrance of your lifelong friend

To have such a friendship is worthy of all your adoration and remembrance

Was it worth me being up late for?

 

[featherhead007]

Good plan!

How long would it take you to get there in your plane?

Four hours

 

[featherhead007]

Nope. I just help minister to the heart-broken, is all!

Ok behave Alex!

Alex behave? Nah,I don't think we have much chance of that

I’m thinking that I need a road trip. But I have a plane, so I’m going to ask my other friend (who knew Brian)?if I could come visit with him in Colorado.? James has a horse ranch there.

You wouldn't be taking off easily if you were here, our winds have been brutal
