Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

A blond in a convertible. Look out world.

I feel we need to see Phyllis in that vehicle.

I inadvertently lost my reading glasses. They were hanging on my collar. I went outside to look for them and asked the chooks if they had seen anything strange in the yard? Jaffar made a grunting sound and at his feet right under him was my glasses. (As if he was guarding them for me ). He’s such a good rooster, aka item location expert!

You can’t buy such humor from a stand up comedian catalog! My chickens are hilarious

No fluffy butt pics. It's hot! They never eat the watermelon chunks I give them. So I cut frozen melon into tiny, delicious tidbits. They looked at it.

Then they turned their beaks up and took their feathery behinds back in the coop!

I'm done trying to get them to eat frozen treats.

Mowing the yard, I had Dakota come out to help me. She was getting too close to the lawnmower, so I sat her down and explained that the big angry grass eater was very dangerous, and she should (please) stay away from it.
I had to run inside and tell BYC all about that!

All that hard work to satisfy your chooks, just to get rejected by them. Shameful!

These would devour all the watermelon in and instant. (Without any complaints)!

So, I know you all are aware of these points since you are on a chicken forum...but I LOVE the short clip of the video after his last point..

BTW he is a bit off in some of his points, but generally they are mostly correct. I just like the entertainment at the end of the video/clip. every chicken for themselves!!!

Indeed a bit off in places but entertaining and I liked the bit where his quiet chicken keeps interrupting him by squawking.

Found this poop today soon after letting them out of the run, didn’t see who made it, I think Butters, I did a float test yesterday because she pooped in front of me and found nothing of note except two tiny red strands that I think are blood tissue, like tiny capillaries maybe. So I basically think Butters did this. If you can stomach looking, I’d appreciate your thoughts.

Spoiler: Curds and blood in poop

Spoiler: Looked at a curd

I took the lower right hand curd and it felt very firm. I opened it some and it was crumbly, in fact the very center was rather dry, with tiny crumbles. This is a bunch of tumor nodules? Or a sort of lash egg?

She pooped a bit later, passed gas and then this, with no blood. The coop overnight haul showed just the usual looking poops- her lighter green, wet poops with bits of food in it, and other very dark robust regular poops.

I will try to post this in the diseases forum also.

Is this actually pus from somewhere, indicating infection? Salpingitis?
