Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Sir Jaffar sleeps with me tonight. It’s cold here now and the heating smells of cigarettes. He doesn’t need to sleep in the animal tote tonight.

I am glad he is staying close to you.

me cleaning and loading my weapon.

Just curious... what do you carry?

I love the snicky-snick sounds of cycling the action on a gun, or the clicky-click sounds of a cylinder rotating.

Button, not quite a fluffy butt shot.

I said that I have my emotional support system and alarm clock me. She said no way can she allow a barnyard animal residence here on property. I said “well you allow bovine’s employment here, so why not my very quiet and tame rooster ? She didn’t get it.
I had the city get my room.

Hold on, I missed something. Why aren’t you home? Where are you? Why is Sir Jaffar with you?

Sigh.
Dad doesn’t want the AC’s to go out under my broody Willow. I have told him a hundred times why it is safe for them. He says that he is fine with Bolt’s chicks going out under her, but he doesn’t want to risk the AC’s lives. He says that they are too expensive to put under a broody hen, and that a snake WILL eat them.

Okay, no. A snake won’t eat them. The only times we don’t really have snakes out here is from December-February, if I’m being honest. I told him that the TSC chicks were at just as much of a risk as these are, if not more, since they were her first chicks ever. She took excellent care of my TSC chicks.
They are going to be even safer with her than the TSC chicks were since this is her second time raising chicks.

I am going to make a few adjustments to where the girls lay eggs. I am going to block off half of my egg coop (it’s a Walmart coop where they go only to lay eggs) so that Willow and her chicks get half and one nest box, and the big chooks get half and one nest box, as well as access to their run.
It would be a temporary solution, just for a week or less, so that I am comfortable with the chicks and I don’t feel worried if they fall down the ladder.
I’m going to try to take pictures when I do it, I feel like it is just too complicated for me to explain while making sense. I’m just going to hope that Dad will let me put them out there. I really feel like Willow- and the others- will protect the babies from any danger.

The chicks are so cute! Two AC’s with Pegasus in the middle.

Yesterday afternoon, after getting a few rolled oats. The Spuds keep looking and the elders take a rest.

Edit - couldn’t see on my phone! - L- R: Anna in front, Tedi then Diane’s tail behind her, then Popcorn to the right & Hazel.

Below, that's definitely Tedi in front. Then Anna, and again Diane’s back and tail. Tedi’s rump feathers really stand tall. Recently I tried to check her uropygial gland - she used to make sounds like she was goosing herself when she got oil from there - and couldn't find it in the dense under-fluff.

The situation has turned up nothing. The case has been transferred over to federal law enforcement and investigative authorities. I’m flying home today.

I am glad you are coming home to your new chicks, but it sounds like a sad situation.

OMGosh! Hahahaha!

How is everyone with their wake up call?

If you mean listening to Ijak in the morning, then great....
