Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Desertvalleychickens]

Rainy drizzly day but the chickens liked their outing in the leaves. Oh and for the first time in MONTHS (Thanks to broody hormones and then molting) I finally got a Brownie egg today

So many fallen leaves!

Due to the incident earlier today with Sir Jaffar, he seems to want to be in the house with me tonight. He doesn’t want to go to the coop with the other chickens.
He’s sneezing a bit too. (Weird sounding cough) I’m probably going to be boring to him, I have paperwork to do to get ready for the inspection. (Jaffar doesn’t even know what a Cessna is!)

So many fallen leaves!

I noticed that too. My yard doesn’t look much better.

My Chicken yard is full of mulberry, pomegranate and fig leaves, as well as straw that the chooks seem to love to dig out of the coop!

Be happy with what you have. My leaves are from wild trees that spread like weeds. The wood is useless for firewood and stinks bad when trimmed or cut. Yuck !

Loads of tax that I owe:

Onyx's molting pictures

Two fig tree pics

Cluckie in the Chicken hospital

Storm chicken lineup

And fluffy butts!

Well, I guess it makes good compost.

Introducing the current residents of Fluffy Butt Acres

As you can see from the front of the coop, we currently have 4 residents. Patsy, Lilly, Hattie & Jabber.

Patsy & Lilly have been here the longest and we ar enot really certain what kind of birds they are but they are likely Black Sex Links. Hattie and Jabber have just joined the flock this summer as they were chicks we got back in April. Here are their individual photos.

Patsy
She is our alpha hen and is extremely friendly. While not a big fan of being picked up she comes right up to you and will talk and visit.

Lilly is currently #2 in the pecking order and intends to stay there. She has become our little enforcer and she defends the flock from such terrors as squirrels, rabbits, doves, and most importantly, ducks.
