Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

I just love the doorknob on it.

I love recycling like that.

Quarantine only works if the chooks cooperate. If Branch is not rushing inside to meet Poppet when I open the door, Poppet is now rushing out. Thankfully each time I have managed to grab her before she rushed headlong into the stalls. She has already had a scrap with Corona because she ran right into her group of chicks. At this point, Poppet is confined not for bio-security but for her own safety. I want to establish to her where home is before I attempt supervised free-ranging.

Harvest time here, and I have received lots of produce from my neighbors (the nice ones)
Walnuts, red onions, garlic, 20 lbs of red potatoes, bell peppers jalapeños, and other stuff. Too much for just myself.

How wonderful.

Put some grapes in there and they can play bobbing for ‘apples’

Those silkies are such brats! It’s too bad you didn’t have a small pullets to put with her to become friends with.

They sink to the bottom of the tubs.

You think you are gonna get cooperation from chooks?

I built a new roost with poop board so that there is plenty of roost room for all the chickens. Nobody is using it.

Come on ladies! I am out 8 screws on that thing! (Scrap lumber, leftover paint, but new screws.)

They'll figure it out. I hope.

I’m not sure what to do about Sir Jaffar. His molt is tough on him. It wasn’t at all like his last molt. I am trying to keep him as comfortable as possible. He still stays away from the ladies, by himself in the yard. So I just take him inside and put on a movie !
