Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[lightm]

My DD and my mother have both been having some medical issues ( my little girl will be A ok, my mom I not so sure about) and it has been taking up a great deal of any and all downtime lately. I am so grateful for the synopsis as I feel I can still participate here.

On a cheerful note, today I got to spend a whole hour outside doing some chicken sitting. It was gloomy but warm enough to be quite pleasant. Here are some pictures from my time with them today:

Lots of fluff butts and two cats who wisely decided to find somewhere else to be. (Myth and Avalon are absolute terrors to the cats and will peck and chase them off if they come too close, meanwhile the two boys just keep their eyes on them but otherwise leave them be. I do remember worrying about the cats being a threat to the chickens now I worry about the chickens hurting the cats!

Haven't had much time to write out a post, it's very hectic right now.
Something behind our garage growled at my dog when he was having his bedtime potty last night. Thankfully he barked then ran to the house instead of trying to go after it. I'll need to walk out with him for a while. We have way too many critters around that would take on a pomeranian.

Oh yes I bet lots of scary creatures out there!

Risking SHRA - would blue food coloring help, like the stuff to do frostings or Easter eggs with? Even if it’s not waterproof it is safe to eat and might do something helpful.

Yes you are correct

And I will apply blue dye tonight - I didn’t get a chance earlier today.

Foggy or moggy?

Well done !

Someone posted a night mode photo here.

I went on a trip and we drove through a area with no bright lights. So I took this using night mode.

Broccoli, they don’t like broccoli. Trying to figure out how to apply it to his head - blue broccoli…. It’s a thing!

I heard from Randy's new chicken tender. He's happy.
