Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[PTR]

If Pastel is good w/ his ladies & protects them keep him and just wear hi-top galoshes to protect your legs from his spurs. You can always put a childs sock over his head whenever you need to hold him for health checks and wear long arm gloves and long sleeves to protect from scratches. I always wear cheap glasses to protect my eyes from curious pecks. Where there's a will there's a way. It's all part of raising pets or livestock. Hope this helps?

Thank you!

I make sun tea on the back porch. Put four tea bags in a big lidded jar, bring in at end of day and add sugar to taste. Mmm.

Yes -- Sun tea w/black tea always seems to taste better than teapot tea! We like raw unfiltered honey rather than sugar/artificial sweeteners. Yum. For herbal tea I like peppermint.

And caught both Reenie and Truly snoozing Friday night, and I see Truly was down sleeping again last night.

Reenie - she snores haha

Is it possible the migrating wild geese/fowl are what's spreading AI thru North America or is it the fault of crowded industrial poultry farms for the spread? It seems backyarders dont get AI & only the commercial poulters do?!

Also, I thought horses slept standing & only lay down if ill? I learn so much on BYC.

Animal husbandry classes are usually .50 cents, but we will wave the cost just for you!

The banana is eaten at 3pm

It isnt dark here now until 10pm - so the blinds are now in use.

My issue is a bad back and getting old



There should be a treatment for old age in this day and age!

Sorry I missed a month of FBA. After a nasty fall breaking my right humerus arm bone I looked like this on Mothgers Day I'm still today one-finger typing w/ the left hand! Had a great day having visitors.
