Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

No, we have not.

You really should neuter every cat you have any responsibility for. Even semi-feral ones you just put food out for.

I miss my chickie's already. It's been less than a day away from them and I miss them and am worried sick.
Bolt happy to be let out for the first time.

No fair. I'm all locked up and my girls are all out. LISTEN TO ME WHEN I CALL! GO BACK TO THE COOP! There is a butterfly, and it looks scary!!

I hope I get let out more often... this is great.

What was it that Pastel said he was going to? It wasn't Ostrich as I found out the hard way... Aha, Austria!!

I'm so mad at Mom
She didn't let me out when the girls were out all day. Instead I only got a few hours with them the next day. Poor me- this was mea few months ago when my foot wasn't as bad as it is now.

It is ok laugh away. Sylvie may have won the fugly title for 2 days max. Mazzie will hang onto it for a few weeks now. Such is the life of a silkie chick.

idk mine could give Mazzie a run at the moment

 

[Ponypoor]

You think Mazzie is a HORSE?!

Worse! A pony! Miniature horse! Russ will pitch a fit when he finds out!

Thank you

That looks nasty. I always soak their feet in Epsom. I'll have to get this spray just in case .

@BY Bob . Is there anyway you could pin this link in this thread, it's extremely helpful.

Not that I'm aware of. You could bookmark it though. Do you know how to do that?

Hmm. Google now wants phone numbers for accounts. Makes it harder.
I also do mine unlisted.
I will warn you, YouTube will want to verify you by invading your privacy.

Vimeo is not as intrusive as Google.

Pool set-up day today so I didn’t get any time with chickens at all to get any mugs. I will rectify that tomorrow!

Rat wars quick update: We are monitoring closely after the nest destruction and manual extermination of all we found. So far, they seem to have left.

After we flooded them out we dug down around the coop and buried hardware cloth around it. I have lightly wood chipped for now so I can see when any new tunnel holes open up.

Electric traps are on the way from Amazon. We had a hardware cloth skirt but figured out that they were backing up till they found the edge and digging under from there. Good heavens they are wiley creatures!!
