Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

Well I hope so. But why not with Bernie?

Because Bernie is scary. Why does no one sleep with Phyllis?

Oh the rooster love I got today. when I was getting the treats, Zeus and Hades both came in and yelled at me at the same time. Mom wheres our treats!.

ooohhh. There is at least one looking/standing like a cockerel in that first pic! And the second, one, it is hard to tell for sure, but looking like another proud boy in there, too!

Little nuggets!! I love the coloring. Do you know what breed they are?

I don't but I'll ask my wife. They were a total surprise for me.

Ya and I already have a new plan in place - steal that nice Roo were my horses were (ok borrow him tee hee hee). I need to house the silkies seperately for about a month (I think 2 weeks isn't enough time, but what do I know?), then bring the wee Roo here for a couple weeks, get the girls all fertilized, then stock up on a couple dozen eggs, and go for a road trip to visit you, make a stop in Hershey to see Bob, get some chocolate on the way home.....

I like this plan. Plus you could meet Phyllis.

One more time Stupid earned his name. Went to take the pups out and seen Cholo had blood on himself but he wasn't bleeding. Red is up so I checked the young bantam and Sebright roosters, all good. Found Stupid, blood on his face but he's clucking along dancing for and mating his gals. No worse for the wear...put Cholo up and let Red out, 5 minutes later Stupid picks a fight with Red

Tough for a Cochin, guess ya gotta be when your name is Stupid...

Oh that little black one, my heart is melting. It reminds me so much of Poppy. She was the tiniest one in her clutch. Does it have a little bump on the top of its head like the big blue one? That blue one has a vaulted skull and will have a fuller looking topknot.

I know I am way behind but aspirin is an anticoagulant. I would not recommend it after a fight. You have no idea what types of unseen injuries he might have.

Yes I thought of that, but could offer no other analgesic option that he may have had on hand And pain can exacerbate stress and shock

This highlights the issue with our feathered friends and the lack of data on medication, I wish that there can be someway to get better care for our chickies.
