Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Miss_BEE]

So I saw proof today that the chicks are fully grown. I was like, "Please get a room. The coop is empty right now. I don't need to see this!"

Here they were afterwards......

Hi there, love your stories about your chickens, I just love Jabberwocky.

Why did the chicken cross the road? Because she wasn’t afraid of the cars ( mostly Toyotas!)

What’s to fear about a Toyota?

No, it goes like this:

Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get the worms on the other side!
(chickens aren't stupid! - well sometimes they do stupid things, but then we all do. They can be pretty smart/crafty when they want to be! Look how @BY Bob 's tribe has organized themselves into pairs to do 'deck duty' so they all get more treats!!!! Need I say more?

@micstrachan will be glad to hear that mealworm reductions have occurred and we are heading into April with over a 1/4 box of mealworms remaining. That will put us to the good side of usage.

They were at the backdoor knocking when I woke up this morning. Mrs BY Bob had left them out and then left for her meeting today. I was strong and they got nothing. I do have some nice leftover fish for them though so treats are coming.

I like Persephone, Hera and Poseidon. Gonna be hard naming silkies until I find out if I have any boys.

Names like Adrian and Alex work either way.

I have been called that by others, mostly my children. Doesn't bother me.

Yep - my eggs are in the incubator at my friends place, they will be putting the Silkies eggs in tomorrow (their other bator is currently hatching out chicks) - I have 6 eggs: 2 from Blanche (try for a couple more pullets from her), 2 from Sophia (try for more wattles), and 2 from Marty (just for Rebecca ).

Who is this wee one?

EDIT: Oh and I gave them four colourful eggs to see if they like them: Rose, Buttercup, Whiskers, and Misty, and 2 further silkie eggs so that makes 2 dozen eggs - so in 21 days everyone will be awash in chicks!
