Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Will give a more in-depth Butter response on her revenge later. Tonight though Aurora would be proud to know what she did at roosting time. She got up on the opposite end to where she sleeps. She then proceeded to throw off the 3 hens and Bubba who were blocking her path to her spot. The final hen in her ways saw her coming and what was happening and flew down on her own before she got slung off.

Wow! Can’t say that mine are that frisky… but Rose is turning into a real bully. I am hoping she gets broody so I can give her chicks to raise- keep her occupied!

I guess because I have had the horses for so long and know their ways are not my way (as much as I would like to kick some people…), when I see them scrapping I know that is their way of communication.

Same with the chickens, it drives me mental to see Rose picking on Curly, yet Curly will pick on Buttercup, and buttercup picks on Rose!!!

What sort of convoluted social structure is that?!

Now THAT is the Way of the Chicken.

I hope you liked the response.

I liked how (was that Phyllis?) just turned around so her head was protected. As if to say buzz off so-n-so…

Yes it was Phyllis that was sucker pecked.

If I find any cool videos I will post for you.

I can't tell you how furious I was when I saw it. I almost rehomed Sansa on the spot. But the way of the Chicken is not the way of the human. I had to remember that and calm down.

You haven’t experienced my neighborhood!

I see Maleficent in a lot of other people's chickens. Dorothy is very similar and a very beautiful lady.

 

[Ponypoor]

This is really wonderful of you to say. I can tell it is from the heart.

I know that Maleficent is not the only chicken that really liked me but at that time she was the only one that chose to spend time with me regardless of whether I had food or not. She was like Daisy in all the good ways. Just sitting in my lap or doing all her grooming on the chair with me. She was special.

Yes, I know they all look forward to seeing me and I love them all for who they are.

For you to write this to me today of all days, with what you have experienced, well you surely are a special lady. I am super glad to have met you here. You are one of the good ones.

Well you know, it’s good for us all to be reminded that we are only human. And I also need to remind myself that I am just human and can no more predict the future, than I can change the weather.

We can talk about it all we want but no changing it.

Thanks for the kind words, you know that this is the best chat thread on here and it’s because you are honest direct and set good humane rules of conduct

It’s all of us that are encouraged to maintain that standard and I thank you for setting it. It also helps me remember to be kind here with others in my work world even when I am having a bad day.
