Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Sally PB]

They said that one (don't recall which one) of the fast food chains was going to "explore surge pricing." They have to get some digital price boards in place, and then during, say, the lunch rush, boom! change the sign and charge more for the same thing, because demand is there and they can get away with it.

I'm going to protest by not eating fast food.

Gosh those babies are getting big!!!

One thing I love about an established flock is that they all know the rules, and adding babies is a breeze!

In fact I would prefer to add hand raised babies rather than deal with crazy broody!

I wonder what consumer protection laws are in place for that sort of shenanigans??

I'm guessing none, as this was a story on the national news.

I had a dream that fast food prices went sky high. So I went online to find out that my dream was actually reality. Seems I will be cooking at home due to this inflation madness. Not just fast food but everything else it seems. I’m scared to go clothes shopping, to find out that being naked is cheaper!!! Gezzz!

Everything is getting ridiculously expensive!

I shopped around last year for better pricing on horse feed and poultry feed, switched dealers and now they seem to putting prices on some of their feeds also.

I really hate to try and find an alternative - it took forever last year, and really the difference wasn’t that great on the chicken feed, the horse feed though was much less expensive.

I was waiting hoping and expecting this from you - well done!

Generally I don’t condone smoking, but Phyllis pulls it off with panache

Phyllis could have been a starlet, but alas, she was born to the wrong Era.

I believe it's Wendy's. I'm pretty sure they'll be "closing locations" this time next year.

I prefer the broody method. I enjoy being the chicken grandmother better than being the chicken mother.
