Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[LhickenChicken]

Yesterday, I got 7 eggs. That is a record for me.

40 eggs is my record! But 7 eggs was my top record... until I got more hens

7 from 10. I am awash in eggs at the moment. What a problem to have, eh?

I have to sell them because I can't eat them all. Better get baking!

I'll be making a frittata soon, for sure! And waterglassing more.

Last night I went to close the coop. 24 adults....24 adults....where's Pear? She's spent the night outside before.....and loitered until almost full dark before turning up. Ok leave the coop open and come back at 3/4 dark. Close the coop (lamp off, forgot phone, no light) final headcount not happening.

Sherlock barked again during the night, not seeing anything.

Morning. Sherlock early morning leg lifting 100% supervised in case Pear is out. Opening the coop: out comes Pear with everyone else. Headcount: 25 adults, 9 babies.

Heading to car to leave for work: PEEP, PEEP, PEEP, PEEP. Go check. Blurr and Rose have left the coop (hatch) and wandered around the other side of the coop together, with PITA following. Now feeling lost, calling for others. PITA left when I walked up. They complained but let me pick them up and return to hatch. I would have herded them so they could find their own way, but already running behind schedule.

I feel a hole where my stomach is supposed to be.

Oh dear, I am sending you a gentle hug, and a reminder to have some plain toast and maybe some hot tea if you have any.
