Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

You may owe SHRA tax for that .... we have other chicken rustlers in our midst!

What is an SHRA

Another new layer alert and holy smokes this one does not disappoint. Way to go Grackle. Now with a egg that dark she has me questioning if she is not indeed a pure Marans. I did give one of the girls a Holly egg, but I cannot remember for the life of me if Raven or Bunny had it. Grackle also looks identical to both Holly and her daughter Bunny.

You know if he had to go somewhere Twig would also be a good addition. He's gaining more confidence around Bubba and Branch. He is also very alert to what is going on in the air. Hawks are everywhere doing their springtime thing. He always has his eye's on them. If he can handle Holly and her "no one sleeps by me" nonsense and win, he could handle Bernie. He is also almost out of his idiot phase. Not once has he offered to step out of line as far as a person has went. Oh, and did I ever mention he is a Corona son. Now, I did say if he had to go somewhere.

I got a bunch of Sebright roosters if anyone cares for those hyper crackheads

Silkies make wonderful roo's as well, and great dads, just saying.

Bantam Cochin's like Jaffar are also wonderful roo's, just ask Alex, or Maran's for that matter.
Of course, mine and Alex's boys have feathered feet. One day, I will bring our friend @RoyalChick over to the dark side. One day.

It is raining today so it is very doubtful I will get any fluffy butt pictures today. That is ok, I saved these from Tuesday.

He is still in full on daddy duty. He finds them food, dust bathes with them and does not let the older ones bully them. Chiquita went to peck one day before yesterday, he intervened.

Yep like me! After bringing horses across the border so many times and not having border agents check inside the horse trailer, I could have been smuggling goats, chickens, other horses.... Beer....
