Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Gosh I hope you are better soon.

Old age no cure for that - but it’s fun whining! Get to post some whining tax photos

Dorothy enjoyed the sun

I have one Brahma and as an adult, she is not a good flier. When she was little, she could fly a bit, but I don't think it was ever her strong suit.

She is such a beauty
I am looking forward to getting mine

 

[Ponypoor]

Lovely!
One thing that is very striking with my current Princesses is how different they are from Maggie regarding the sun.
Today was a lovely sunny day and I sat in the chicken field and nodded off.
When Maggie was alive she would have been sprawled out in the sun next to me. I woke up and there were no chickens. Of course I was in a panic - but they were all napping in deep shade. Strange.

Ya I know that feeling! Wake up, where’s the chickens!!!! ??? Count them….

Maybe they felt safer there from hawks. Or maybe they get too warm.

 

[Ponypoor]

It is windy for sure!

It’s entertaining when the silkies try to walk and get blown over in the wind

No seriously. Who uses an egg cleanser!? I jut wash my eggs under running water.

And I don't wash them at all!

 

[Ponypoor]

And I don't wash them at all!

I only wash if they have any poopies on them which is very rare.

I always knew Maggie was unusually obsessed with sunbathing - but it isn't until I see this lot that I realize how extreme she was.
A true sun worshiper!

Edited to add sun worship tax from the sun worshiper herself. Rest in peace my friend Maggie, I hope the sun will always shine for you wherever you are.

That is very sweet of you to say. I'm glad you love the stories. Do you have chickens? If so we would love to see photos of them.

I am getting some chicks, when they arrive I am going to take alot of pictures and post for everyone to see and how they are doing. it is hard for me to read your story all the time I am busy with things but I love your chickens.
