Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

I'm not certain what to say about this behavior. I think I would only show her my palm moving forward.

Tough to do that while working in there, they all crowd around interested in what I'm doing. But I could try showing her my palm to begin with, and going from there.

Maybe you need one of these jerseys, if you are a fan? View attachment 3693130

The joke is on you. I am a Baltimore Ravens season ticket holder.

And in payment, a black hen.

That might actually be worth trying.

Morinth had to show the younger girls that the bread pan was full of delicious water this morning. It snowed even more last night, told hubby that we unfortunately need to get that water deicer soon or I'll be out there 4x a day bringing them water.

And here's a beautiful black Shep. She's gotten very proud of herself after my brother said she's as soft as a kitty...constantly wanting pets.


Liara has a comb after all, just a little bitty one. But it's grown a lot over the past few days, from completely flat to little bumpies.

Samara matches the snow, but she is keeping her distance from me.

Such fluffy cheekies

Y'ALL!!!! My little special needs duck, who was rejected by another mama, Miracle, grew up to have part of her issue heal, and get big and stron like the others so she could be outside with them, is now a really big girl! She just watched, copied and helped her mama build a nest in their pen and then she laid an egg! She had been laying for a few days but just randomly in the yard, sometimes nowhere near where the other one laid. And she laid one and then her mama laid and then another one laid!
For the longest time we were scared she wasn't going to make it, or be able to live without help. I'm so proud of her! Sorry I had to share! Pics of her cute self and then her egg next to mamas egg.

Awww! So glad she is doing well and laying eggs - good job Miracle

I really love my heated dog water bowl for keeping water liquid in the chicken run when it's cold. The first one lasted 2 years. When it quit, I didn't think twice about buying another one. About $20 (?) I think, at TSC.

I bet it has saved me more than one slip-and-fall. I'd have to carry a heavy bucket of water out 2-3 times a day. Awkward. Uneven footing. Slippery walkway. $20 looks really cheap when I think of it that way.

It's probably saved you a huge 10 grand hospital bill.

That would not surprise me. And when this one dies, I will buy another one.

I like to look at things this way, .
If it’s good for my rooster, then it’s good for me!
