Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Peavey here in Alliston, gets some from Freys Hatchery, and also up from Hoovers in the US. I think Hoovers is in Iowa. I am surprised they wouldn’t ship to AB. Calgary or Edmonton would be a direct shipment I would say.

Freys has nothing I am interested in, Hoovers has a better selection of breeds.

I just checked out Millers but they don’t ship to Ontario. Oh well, just as well I can get most of their breeds easily here except those Andalusian ones.


Isn’t that the way with everything.

You might try Freys, if your looking for dual purpose birds - they are a dealer with the SASSO line of birds bred by Hendrix Genetics for meat/eggs. And they have Speckled Suspects and Orps also. And blue and dark egg layers (marans hybrid), they do shipping cross Canada as far as I know.

Speckled Suspects!

Don't you have a Jubilee Orpington? I'm looking to have an all Orpington flock, possibly this year, and It includes Chocolate Orpingtons and Jubilee Orpingtons. Unfortunately, 90 dollars for three hens and shipping from Cackle is more than I am willing to pay. Any ideas for more budget friendly sellers?

My Jubilee Orpington was also $30 as a chick, in 2021.

I did something different today. I went to town and bought a pair of jeans
At a popular thrift store on Main Street.
Cost of pants a staggering $3.50

Worth every penny!

Penelope “makes them an offer that they can’t refuse!” (Godfather)

Simple. Just dangle a ton of old computers in front of me in exchange for cleaning your chicken poop for a hour. No way I'm going to refuse that.

I'm seriously hoping everyone here is okay? I've been reading of the severe weather problems going on in America and getting really worried.

I'm ok, the chooks are ok, but the weather is so variable. Today it is cloudy and chilly. But there's going to be wind tomorrow. Last time there was strong wind it was nasty. Add snow on top and I'll lose it.

Worry less about our weather and more about our government!!

Exactly.

Sir Jaffar, he’s just kicking it inside the house today. He just wants to sleep for a while. He woke up just long enough to eat some chopped steak and take a poop. Then he’s back to sleep.

That requires tax you know what I like

The government here loves taxing us.


Autocorrect, you piece of trash.
