Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[notabitail]

You made me crack up like an egg that Bananito steps on! (For some reason every egg she steps on breaks)

As he slips in the chicken poo and lands with a hard thud on a mountain of giant land chicken poo, the eggs that he is carrying... *drumroll please* lands on his head!

*falls down in pile of cecal poop and little meat chicken crawls on face and craps a huge warm watery cecal poop in my hair. me: ugh. Bananito the bane....*

I have sat in my chair, scooped Gaby up, and set her on my lap. Almost immediately, the trapdoor opens. My lap felt warm and wet. Gaby felt warm inside, knowing that the human would set her down. The human cleaned the mess and picked her back up, making Gaby very disappointed.

Here is a sight to warm my heart.
Daring to hope. Operation ‘snap out of it’ may be working!

Of course I spoke too soon. She is back on her nest warming up the ice packs.

I have wanted a broody to melt the butter for cooking....

AAh! scary Aurora!

And @BY Bob tell Aurora that she has a namesake. One of my EE's with muffs is called Aurora, and the other one with muffs is called Muffin.

Is there one named Mutter?
(OK, maybe nobody gets a computer joke)

I'm sorry for your hen, @LhickenChicken. Had you not realized before she passed that she had been laying internally ?
I was heartbroken when I learned Caramel had EYP, I had missed all the clues. Now I've come to realize it will probably happen to all my ex-batts, as to many layers. It's the price they pay for us having pets that make us breakfast.
I keep Caramel in my avatar to remind me of all I learned when she passed.

In happier news : my partner finally built a small second coop inside the actual run and look who's inside making a mess.

Awwwww more babies - and look at that little white one. My Gosh! They sure are cute aren't they?

So glad you can join us in all the fun (and troubles) of having chicks under foot

Good night ladies sleep tight

I am going to try for some pictures later today. I have sorta been absent from the computer yesterday and today. The last 2 days have been pure you know what. Grandma has reverted back to how she was right after the stroke and shouting at everyone or crying. I am so thankful for the horses and the chickens right now because if this keeps up I will literally loose my mind very soon.

Sending you hugs

I too am glad you have your pets

Well it finally happened. A few minutes ago she asked to go to a nursing home. I'm floored and also relieved. I guess we start the process tomorrow.

Bitter sweet though.

This little man right here

He knew I needed him. We have been in the middle of a almost 36 hour fight simply because for the first time in a year dad said something to grandma when she went off on Rosie. Grandma ended up shouting to mom a hour ago was she getting a divorce, mom replied of course not. Well, she cannot stay here then. Me and Rose went outside and hid, I did a much needed deep clean of the coop. Branch never left my side. I have cried into his feathers today and he has just "purred". Well, the chicken equivalent of a purr. I'm back in and he is asleep on my lap. Mom and Rose went to the store and dad is in his room napping. Everyone please forgive me for saying this, I have prayed for this day to eventually come. We have done everything possible for her and it has never been good enough. The things she has said to me or called me when I willing stepped in to take the brunt of it so she would leave Rosie alone will haunt me forever. I know she has dementia, but the majority of the downright hurtful things have been said when she has had moments of clarity and she knew full well what she was saying.

So sorry to hear this but really glad for Branch being there for you, and the Horses
