Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RoyalChick]

Phew! I have managed to convince everyone to go back to the nest boxes to lay.
When Calypso was broody she was so mean that the little hens (Piglet and Pooh) weren’t bothering to try and get in. So eggs have been left in random places on the floor.
Looks like we have a return to normal programming.
Not sure who ran out of ink.

I had chicken Pox as a child, and it was miserable. But I can’t persuade my roo to come inside and get treatment. He just waits at that screen door and taunts me. He’s too fast to catch.

The joy of young chickens! Catch him with a net or towel or something & treat him. He will forgive you in time!

Wait until dark. Even if you need a ladder and flashlight

Maybe....

Look at that, a motorcycle ride and a painful back scratch at the same time!

In time . How about I just wait until evening for perch time. He’s much more relaxed at night.

w/us having so few hens we panic faster to treat sooner. When we have only 2 to 5 hens at a time & an illness hit one & we lost it the flock dynamic changed. It caused us to treat asap as a result. But that's us & not all other chicken owners.
