Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

I just landed at Porterville airport. I’m going home very soon. My car is in the hanger where Marie belongs. I will update you all when I see my chooks.

Glad to hear you landed safe.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I hope you get the necropsy results soon in case Jolene is also affected by the same thing. Are the little ones ok? Will you have to put them in a brooder now?

Thank you, the little ones seem fine. They still cry for her at night, i imagine it’s hard for them all of the sudden to not have a mom to tuck under at night though. They are in my room in a brooder and are doing well.

So wonderful she is doing ok - that is a nice egg!

Don't forget to post more baby photos!

The last chick hatched out.
Both of them are now out and thriving and they are so cute

Glynda in this picture looks like she is filling out a bit more still sleek and refined but maturing beautifully. She really does glow.
LF my inspiration for the hatching eggs I have on pre-order is looking beautiful as always in all her spangled feathers.
Aurora looks beautiful of course but also a bit like me in the morning before coffee lol not ready to be up quite yet

I agree. She is starting to look like a chicken and a bit less like an oversized song bird

So.... guess who is broody?

Guess who is sitting on 3 eggs??

Guess who is getting all the Roos?!

Spoiler: Welcome Home

Rebecca gets the Roos that's who!

She has 3 eggs, 2 pink silkie eggs not sure if one is hers, and a large brown egg that I think is a Sophia egg. I marked them all for today and tomorrow will keep an eye out to see who lays what eggs so I can guess at who the 2 pink eggs are. And Sophia also...

And you doubt her, how could you

I got my first guinea egg of the year yesterday! One of my second season layers AKA my adult/originals laid it. It's so tiny! Hopefully they get bigger!!

Oh, Willow has her egg color all straightened out. I will get a picture of that later.

Hi all, how is everyone?
Yesterday Dixie passed away with the babies under her wing with them chirping trying to get her to wake up. I sent her off for a Necropsy in UCONN because her sudden death alarms me. Jolene seems like her behavior and is sleeping in the house. All dirty, ruffled feathers, pale, not eating. Hope she pulls through.

I'm sorry Dixie has died
I may be wrong here but when Tina was pale, I added a little cayenne pepper to her food and it really helped with her circulation

Paragraphs definitely make it easier to read!
Do Guinea eggs taste similar to chicken eggs?

Tax for paragraph talk - BFTP with Diana and Maggie having a serious chat about a worm. RIP lovely ladies.

Walked closer, Cheetah hopped out...
