Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Phyllis will get eggs. I am unlikely to ever go the chick route again.

I can’t wait!!!!!

She has seen Jafar's pose and was trying to replicate it.

Oh on beakbook again was she?

How many time have you changed that password now? She must be a hacker

27c?! That's t-shirt and shorts weather! I have snow and wind and rain...
And an optometrist appointment. Gah.

Yes it is very extreme for this time of year

Normally around a high of 10C (50f), and overnight lows at freezing.

So you can imagine how thrilled I am! And the chickens are just having a blast! My neighbour up the road has a Roo and he and Mr P have been Cocorico all week!

Just loving this weather, next week back to reality

Where are you too?

You can keep the freezing evil white stuff

I’m off. Back in 10 days. I will try to keep up.
Both Eli and Babs are in the nest boxes laying as I take off. Of course I will worry like crazy about Eli while I am away, but there wasn’t much I could do for her even when I was there. I am just hoping she only lays single yolk eggs.
Everyone roosted together last night. So I was happy about that.

Catch you when you land, bon voyage and safe travels.

Today is supposed to be over 80 F.
We have three happy chickens ready to go outside.

ALBERTA 10c during the day normally. It was packing snow yesterday. I don't WANT the freezing evil white stuff! It was soo sloppy and then it FROZE overnight and so I have a crispy crunchy mess to walk on. Ugh. Last Saturday I had a beautiful 18c. Still not t-shirt weather though.

DANGER DANGER DANGER !!!!!

Danger Hooman - Danger come quick!

I am just a bit freaked out here, I went outside to see what was up and a Fox was right at the coop fence looking for a way to get in. I of course freaked out and ran screaming bl***dy murder and swear at the thing - it ran off into the paddock.

Of course my panic then set everyone off even more! I ran over and grabbed old Penelope - she really is clueless most of the time and was just standing there all on her lonesome - I am sure that the Fox had her in its sights.

I rounded up everyone and made them come back inside and I did a headcount - 13.

Then I went out to the paddock to see if I could see the little beastie. Time to get that outdoor run completed ASAP and electric fencing up PDQ!

I just got back from the Manning area (ok well 2.5hr from Manning down the Chinchaga Forestry Rd haha). It was warm there all winter - we were worried about equipment breaking through the muskeg, but it was pretty good frost packed.

It was one of the mildest winters I ever experienced out there, can't be good for forest fires

Ok well I need to finish chores here, everyone has settled down, but I am afraid they will have to stay put inside unless I can watch over them until I get the electric fencing up.

Penelope you are a lucky girl
