Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

Remember, Cats are afraid of chickens. When I had just 8 chickens, my Roo sounded the alarm when he saw my cat. BUT...instead of running away...the chickens CHARGED the cat - with my Roo Sir Lancelot in the lead. The cat was always wary of them thereafter and would RUN and climb the nearest tree if they even looked at her crossly!

My point in all this - maybe they are trying to sound like a very large, invincible flock ????

That makes sense. I mean really, how can a small group of not very large creatures make such a racket - there must be hundreds of them under that tiny shrub!

Thank you @rural mouse - I was trying to figure out how to do that editing on my phone!

I have a phone with a stylus.....and ended up playing with it yesterday over something else....otherwise, I'd be struggling also.

No! No more chooks this year!

Now next year is another story, I still would love a Dark Brahma and maybe a Cuckoo Marans

If you managed to get out here, I'd be happy to send you home with half/quarter dark brahma EGGS. Also some part hamburg eggs. You're responsible for getting them under a broody, though.

Is it a Samsung?
My old phone had a stylus.

Walking Sherlock this morning

Those were clear last night....

Trying to get a good pic of Chia....she's elusive. Jessica, on the other hand was going to pose, but....

Stealth attack from Storm. No buk-buk, no scream, just CHARGE!

And above us (Sherlock was with me, fascinatedby the cascade of leaves). Yes, mountain chickadees can cling to the underside of branches, parallel to the ground.

One of the notes. 9 or 10, I think...

This is my Note 9. If the cameras are in the upper left corner you have a 10.

Why not mark the 'old' eggs and put them in the nest boxes - give them the hint that that is a good place to lay! Then, once they start laying in there - remove the old eggs and toss them then.

BTW: Gosh, she looks tiny in that long nest box. A nest box built for two, perhaps??? Or is it to make 'mom' more comfortable when she is incubating eggs???? (Hint, hint, Sophia, Curly, & Fluffy!!!!)

Great idea with the eggs and I will do eggsactly that!

She is a tiny hen those Azurs are petite. But the nest boxes are large because I was too lazy to make 4 - too much cutting! Those boxes are 12”x25” and 13” inside height.

Every woman should have some sort of accent attire, don't you know!

She is even wearing it correctly!

Just need pearls and a fascinator and she is set for the gala
