Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Get another heated panel. I don't see how covering a little door is going to change the temp in your big space there where they roost. But are there breezes?

No. I don’t think there is any breeze inside. I am just a worrier and I like tinkering!

Poor dear! I have a hen molting late, too. This morning, the poor thing was shivering when she came out to eat. I held her gently to keep her warm and held the scoop of feed so she could eat while being heated by me. It is very hard to watch them like that - especially since it was down to around 20 degrees last night.

It's cold here too. Not as low as that but nevertheless colder than we can bear. We are down to 0 C and according to the forecast it's feeling like 0 5.

Sir jaffar’s problem today, he is annoyed by the trucks in the alley, thumping out all types of noises. It’s bothering me too!

Why are the trucks there?

Princess is braving the garden for a while she's had a bit of banana then foraged for some soldier meal worms and drank some warm water to wash it all down.

I figured it's best to keep her moving.

I want to go back into the coop now please

I can't leave her out for long but she's enjoying a few minutes.

It's another cold night here on the Ranch. Not as bad as last night but the babies will be happy Friday night when the low is back to a normal 57. Everyone is tucked in. It was too cold for me to get pics of the other pens on the back side of the property. I just did a real fast count and came back in!

It was -8C here yesterday morning, today it’s going to be a high of +8C - crazy weather these days. Hoping the SNOW goes bye-bye.

But tomorrow it’s supposed to be squalls again so my drive home will be miserable

Can’t wait to see how much these two have grown!!

These babies are affectionately known as the Commanders. After the Robertsons. They are normally much happier and excited. 25 degrees does not seem to go well with them Phil and Si have attitudes and the annoyance is all over Willie's face.
