Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

I had an omelette with garlic mushrooms and kale. So feeling more together.

Thanks Alex

Maybe you could go treat yourself to a nice pile of chips and deep fried fish?

Somehow or other, I think Cheetah got to Shan's mother (Primula or Belladonna). She's pinking up and sprouting wattles. Just noticed she does NOT have a pea comb, but rather a WALNUT comb. That could only come from Cheetah or Horus (who could also pop the straight comb offspring). Playing with genetics calculator, her colors could ONLY come from the dark brahma x hamburg. Like Chia's could only be the golden wyandotte x hamburg. More and more I suspect Enigma as a Silver offspring crossed with Whiskey or Horus (with both Silver and Horus having straight comb hidden under the rose comb).. Tuff is definitely a Horus x either Pippa or Maizie cross. Havoc is from the in-laws genetics.

All the Invasion ladies are pink, but I think only Chia is laying. I cannot confirm that as she had disappeared twice and I haven't figured out where yet.

Your place is a madhouse! Crazy chooks! . Nobody knows who is who there!

Of all my chooks, Sir Jaffar is probably the most (human acting) character than the rest. He tolerates his squire but prefers to do things his own way.
He’s a very good rooster.

She's had a good 4 hours outside in the grass today. I made sure she ate wet layers. Now she's relaxing on the perch in the run.
It's chilly so the hand warmers are tucked into a sock and buried beneath the straw.

Thank you to everyone for your guidance

She is looking really good

I just had a brain fog moment today. Jaffar was laying in a hole in the yard. He was looking kind of dead. I picked him up and realized that he was taking a dust bath and I had bothered him. Oops!

I feel like I need a chart to follow along

True

Hazel’s eyes got better after the first dose. She’s had three doses so far. I think her breathing sounds a little better today but I’m not sure. Popcorn is much more active than she’s been, she looks more feathered out now.

They do that!
First time I saw it I thought they had stroked out. Dustbathing looks like hard work. How is his breathing?
