Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[knoturavggrl]

I know I shouldn’t giggle but all of you wonder why my time thieves take up so much of my time - well that is exactly why - all I do is clean feeders waterers, and scrap the barn alleyway. Even the horses mange to get hay feed and some times poop in their water

Now I keep all the feeders and waterers up on bricks or 4x4 chunks, or in the alleyway on the brick floor. Easier to sweep the floor that clear the feeder and waterers.

Time thieves!

I was going to ask how the horses managed to get poop in their water buckets but then immediately decided I didn’t want to know!

Goofballs all of em are goofballs!

First video, he is crowing down by the barn. Bubba is aware and is watching the girls.

It did not take him long, here he is. Bubba is watching and Trampy Judy is thinking of heading his way.

The Interloper

Off the hill he comes.

He is bold and not afraid of Bubba.

The fight was short, sweet and to the point. He gave way to Bubba and ran off. Neither boy was hurt. Again though, idiot phase, he will be back to wash, rinse and repeat. Bubba has age, experience and size on his side. Bubba also has not been 100% and with this heat I do not need him exerting himself defending his flock. The interloper, young, fit, stamina and stupid. If he does not get the point quickly he could cause Bubba to give himself a heart attack in this heat.

I have to take care of him and I have to do it soon. I do not have the grace of time to try and catch him to rehome. My boys well being and safety comes first.

Yes your priority is to your flock and your Roo. I would hate to see poor Bubba injured.

Well they rub their butts on the buckets and sometimes they just drop poops in the bucket. I have had really bad horses doing this almost every night so I would hang their buckets really low on the wall so they can’t rub their butts.

He's a handsome lad, but definitely a hormonal idiot. Every time he causes trouble, can you keep track of the time and "bill" the event organizers for the ongoing hassle and damages?

I was thinking along the same lines. Even if just to make the point.

Poor Xzit. I had to force her to go into the house to eat and drink. She’s not all here right now. Heat related I’m sure.

I think she’s snapping out of it, or maybe she is just too exhausted to act normal.

Xzit, like myself, never got over the loss of our beloved rooster. If Jaffar wasn’t hanging out with Hen-Rietta, he would be with Xzit.
She doesn’t hang around with her sisters very much.

Our Dominique has been pretty much a loner ever since she was a chick. Two chicks would be together but little Dana spent most of her time away from them.

How sad.
