Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Lexicon]

Viola says "Happy Monday!"

Viola is the chick who took a while to start thriving. She is doing well, but I find myself watching her closely because she has a way bigger comb and wattles than any of the other chicks, although she is smaller. She is 6.5 weeks old.

She looks quite regal in this second photo! Very fitting for the head honcho!

Oh, I suspect you are correct - those wattles are good size for one that age. Definitely be nervous if they start pinking up in the next week or two!

Beautiful chick, though - and glad s/he is thriving now!

Also who can guess what breed the first three are?
Hint: they are a very rare Italian dual purpose breed.

Buttercups?

I meant that. My Rocks are pretty average looking, but are so friendly and loving. Is she a lap sitting loving type also?

Not at all!
If I am honest I am a little intimidated by her.

There was a little yellow rat snake outside my house today. I tried catching it, but it got away. Darn

My stoopid servent keeps my foot wrapped in this sticky stuff that won't come off.
