Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

First egg

Sweetie-pie has laid her first egg, this teeny brown egg, the pink one is from Henny Penny.

And I don’t know who laid this wee fairy egg, it was still warm when I found it on the aisle floor. It was laid in the time it took me to rescue Clyde from being clobbered by Rosario, and come back in the barn.

Today is such a lucky day!

I'm dying from the dog pics. I really really wish I could have a dog... Someday! I'm determined! And another thing about dogs-

It was a really foggy morning yesterday. I really like how these pictures turned out

I didn't do Caturday yesterday. Here's a baby picture of Sasuke. How was he ever that small?

This needs cleaned. My grandma made it. I don't remember how long ago she said, maybe 50 years? She's been going through some old stuff and looking for things to get rid of (donate). I'm keeping some of the things because there's so much character in them, and because it feels nice to own things that my grandma has memories of and things that she made with her own hands

She made this for my dad when he was 13 or 14. Now he's mine! I need to clean him up and glue his shoe back together, and find a good stick for his wand. And he needs a good Discworld wizard name...

He's magnificent. She made a lot of dolls and things when she was younger. Very crafty lady

Look at that wonderful comb. Pea combs have always been one of my favorites.

Happy equinox! We have had such perfect weather this week, chilly mornings and 75-80°f days. Ruca has been spending hours outside, something we have never done before. Good for her old bones for sure.

For "pony" sunday I have something wacky. Pics aren't great, but if you look close you will see a mouse in a rose bush! Guessing it ran from either the cats or chickens. Its about 5-6 feet up.

Your scenery pics are wonderful. Takes me back to my foggy farm day scenes!

We never had dogs or cats for the kids when we parents BOTH worked but we did keep caged in-house birds then ~ cockatiels/English budgies/parakeets/parrot/canaries. Once DD was 16 & working she bought her 1st dog a Rottie & took care of his expenses herself which included food, license, vet bills, vaccinations, & fence repairs. She bought her 1st house at 19 & also kept 2 cats that lived to 18 yrs. Today in her 50's she rescues pit-mixes whenever she loses a dog (bigger dogs have shorter lifespans avg 10-12 yrs).

Your kitten is so cute. Nice that they have better lifespans than most dogs.

Your Granma made good use of her crafting skills ~ no TV's or internet to distract her in the olden golden days. In the 1950's when I was a kid my Pop bought a TV w/a tiny fuzzy 8-inch black & white screen w/ only 3 channels, poor reception, & went off air after sunset Teehee! It wasn't a piece of technology that glued us to it so we had plenty of free time to play, do chores which is fun on a farm, read, bicycle to the neighbors down the road to visit w/their kids, etc. I feel sorry for city kids that can't/don't have that Nature's life.

She is pretty!
I also like small or no-comb birds.

Silkie walnut comb ~ where is it?

Breda fowl ~ no comb - just triangle crest feathers on top

Dominique rose combs

Sorry I can't see the mouse? Perhaps indicate which picture & say if its upper left or middle or bottom right, etc in the pic?
