Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[The Chick Addict]

Good night y'all! I'm headin-for-bed! Got a big day tomorrow. Ha ha, or today!

Good night, or, as my chickens say, "buck bowk".

Yes! I'm a volunteer at a Pro-Life Boot Camp for middle schoolers so that has been taking up a lot of my time and it is fun. Oh, and my birthday is tomorrow.

Happy Birthday.
Do you have any pictures of your Chooks? We love chicken pictures!

That was nice of you to try to save the baby bird (Rosie - that name has a very special place in my heart!) Wild Baby birds are very fragile and many don't make it when raised by humans. You made a great effort, though!

Hey Y'all! It's been a while! Don't mind if I jump in do you?

Of course not. Welcome back

All right! I'll start off. I just recently renovated the coop with new fresh shavings, big, roomy nest boxes and new sturdy roosts. Unfortunately, they have somehow contracted Coccidiosis. I ordered Corid treatment online and spent an arm and a leg for it to get here tomorrow. I don't want to take any death risks.

Two Mockingbirds made a nest in the rosebush by my house. Long story short, they laid 4 eggs, one fell out, 3 hatched 2 were eaten by my cat and I saved the last one, Rosie. I've been taking care of her for two days and she's been doing great but today during the afternoon she started acting lethargic and soon after she died in my arms. I'm devastated.

Oh no! I'm so sorry for you.

Wow - that time went by very quickly - it doesn't seem like it was a full 2 weeks that I thought he had leave for! I'm sure you wish it was longer, too. I'm so glad for you that you had this time, and that he is doing well. It is amazing their growth in a year or two 'on their own' - particularly when in the service.

That is a cool picture of ?Zulu?

More pictures of Momma and the littles. Yes, there are a number of littles in that 'mighty jungle'

Awww that’s sad, wild birds are very hard to raise and very fragile. Hopefully
Ms Mockingbird learns to build her nest somewhere safer.
