Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Here is a handy hint for retrieving eggs from awkward locations, in case you need it!
Get a small can - an empty 3oz cat food tin is perfect. Nail it to the end of a long but relatively light piece of wood (I used those furring strips that they use in roofing and behind dry wall if the framing isn’t true).
It is like a giant spoon/scoop.
Works a treat. Don’t ask me how I know!

I remember that hahahaha and it worked great for you!

So what did you do with them? Had they gone bad?

Check out these tracks from this morning, on my way to the barn and saw these coon prints.

Need to get my run finished with electric fencing.

Ever heard the Billy Joel song piano man ? “Regular crowd shuffles in” that’s what my chooks are doing at this moment!

I will float test them tomorrow morning

I will float test them tomorrow morning

Float test is a myth it doesnt mean they are bad it means theres a lot of air. They take awhile to go bad and the only way to tell is if they smell.
