Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Of course we have IKEA hahaha

Everything you have down there we pretty much have up here (except Target anymore). And nice weather it seems…..

We don't have ikea in el paso, so this is kinda special for me.
Nice weather? El Paso is dry, Austin is humid. Big difference. I like it in Austin better due to the green landscape.

I just want it warm and not windy!

Ok you enjoy Austin, and the greenery

Eli update
She was strange all day. Sat around on her own a lot. Had some good moments where she wandered around sampling grass seeds, but even then she was very withdrawn and not her usual self.
She seems missing her joie de vivre which makes me sad.
Tonight she has gone back into her nest box.
I don’t know what I can do to help her.

Picture from a good moment today.

Poor Eli. I hope your bird can cheer up and be well.

Oh goodness, what tough day I am sorry you lost a pullet.
The cooling system dying is also no fun AT ALL. So expensive when they go out. Hopefully they can fix it vs having to replace it all.

The coil is leaking and can't be repaired

I’m relaxing inside the house with my little Dakota. On TV there’s a documentary about dolphins. I actually turned to Dakota and said “hey look at this, chicken of the sea!”

I've been woken up by some selfish noisy brat banging his car doors, at stupid o'clock in the morning. Then finally speeding off.

I hope someone punctures his tires, he darn well deserves it.

Oh bless her. Has she hurt her foot or somewhere else on her body??

Saw a hawk kill one of our pullets this morning as I was greeting the hvac guy. I yelled, the hawk dropped her but she was dead. A short-time later the tech read the last rites to our evaporator coil that is pouring out freon. Guess I won't be buying any lottery tickets today.

As beautiful as they are they are nothing but vermin to our chickens. I'm sorry Greg
