Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Sally PB]

Don't thank me, Sally! The weekly synopsis was done by RC @RoyalChick
That's a great fluffy butt shot, unusual angle, and great lighting on Pip!

Thank you, @RoyalChick.

Yesterday was a long (interesting, exciting) day. I wrote about it in my thread.

Tax:

I hope everyone agrees: Pip on my shoulder makes a good tax payment.

Mornin! More ice in the water today...but a good shake broke it up so they have fresh water again.

It's so hard to see but Thane has the teeniest cheeky poofs! They curl out away from his face just a bit.

And they were more interested in the puddle on their cave over the waterer. I got to hold Thane and Shep, and pet Liara and Ash when they went on the run roost. All looked and felt healthy. I'll make them a warm mash in a little while.

Sophia is black? Then no. However, your birds are doing odd things anyway. Mr P shouldn't be throwing black babies. Blue should be the darkest his babies get. Something odd is there somehow.

Yes and my black pullets Tippy and Eli-too are really black, Petunia has brown highlights on her breast.

That egret is lovely, we get them in Toronto, but rarely up here, in the summer. Love the shadows from the fence that’s really cool

There's a little sun at the top of the garden so plenty of vitamin D.

Tina had her bottom washed and Princess is molting at the wrong time of year.

Tina is getting fed all sorts along with Princess. Tina's isn't so bad now and because it's cold they both need lot's of good nutrition.

Did you notice what's laying in the fence shadows?

Yea I did see and was thinking it was an iguana - yours?? was she having a nice day out in the sunshine?

This is Sophia’s colouring. And she is the only one I have with wattles not sure if that means anything as Mr P has wattles - can those be passed along when combined along a hen with no wattles and no comb?

No. He's someplace where they can live outside.
