Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Awll

I'm Seeing Spots. Lots More Spots.

I was wrong a few weeks ago when I said I thought Lady Featherington was done molting. Only her neck had molted. About 2 weeks ago she started dropping feathers everywhere below her neck. Check out what she looked like.

She already has feathers coming out and check out all the white! It looks like she is going to be "superspotted" after this molt!

I am so excited to see what her new feathers bring her. I'm glad they are coming in fast as it was only 20°F (-6.7°C) this morning.

Awwll, I know it is a normal process but darn it does look so uncomfortable. She does have a ton of white spots coming in! I am absolutely positive she will be looking incredible again soon

Someone, glares...Dottie, came very close today to needing a attorney to bail her out of jail for assault. I am sitting on the building ramp, taking pictures of some of her sisters when she came right up and seriously considered pecking my legs. I feel bad now teasing the rocks calling them jailbirds with their prison jumpsuit coloring. Clearly spots should be a jumpsuit instead of stripes.

Which one is the sister who lives for a life of crime I ask?

Somebody please help my little Dakota. She’s miserable

I feel your pain, every time I think they are all done someone drops more feathers! Sighh, what a crazy process! I do wish nature decided to do it earlier when it was still warm.

Nope Hattie is done molting and she takes offense to the term ratty.

Here she is today and there is not a feather out of place.

She looks lovely her coloring is so pretty.

I gave you all clues a few days ago on which one is Spot and which one is Dottie. The picture also gives a hint on who is considering jail time for assault. In the meantime, I got some new pictures of Owly and Spooky.

The rate she is going, she will be guilty before the weekend is over if I give her much more opportunity.

Speckled Suspects are not supposed to act like that. What’s going on over there?
What’s in your water?
