Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

As of right now the only chick that doesn't jump on me of their own free will is Kasumi. I think it's because her tail hasn't grown in yet so she doesn't balance well.

On the plus side, Ash looks like she has laced feathers now, not barred? She's the kid's favorite right now.

Shep is the leader still, but as soon as she does something Ash is right behind her!

Liara is still shy but will jump on my shoulder on her own.

And some chicky butts lined up to say hello to the youngest chicken tender.

Well I ask still way way behind, but just had to post this.

I think I am in big trouble. Had to stop by TSC today. They have Lavender Orpington and Blue Laced Gold Wyandotte pullets.

I really really want some. But am so worried about getting them when we are still over 100 degrees during the day for a few more days, then it is finally supposed to start being in the 80-90 degree range.

And of course my girls who tried to be broody almost all summer have finally quit. So I would have to use a brooder and try to integrate instead of sneaking them under a hen. And am not sure if I should keep them in an air-conditioned building the first few days.

Ok, let the enabling commence.

Quick like a bunny go back to TSC and grab 3 or 8 and shove them under your broody before it’s too late!

If you worries about the heat put a couple of those huge industrial fans in there to move the air around!

Hop to it lady!

I’m staying put tonight. Flying IFR is just not going to happen for me tonight. The mountains can get treacherous, and accuracy means life or death . I heard that the chooks laid five eggs today (said Paul)
So, I’ll burn up my minutes of data on this iPhone.
