Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

I cannot wait to see all those lovely Rockettes with their shiny stripes and glorious wattles and combs

Pay up buddy

A temporary tease to tide you over.

 

[BY Bob]

That certainly brought a smile to my face!

It's the music that really makes it work.

After seeing this I don't mind my little 2-lb broody Silkies!

Thanks Bob

One of the things I really appreciate with your thread is the chit chat of chickens and no political jibber jabber.

I am not a citizen of the States and I do feel uncomfortable with that sort of talk, there are a few of us who are not American on this thread and we really don’t have any business making any comments regarding your homeland.

So thank you to each and every one of you on this thread, you all make this thread such a wonderful inclusive place to spend some time, let’s keep it that way

Ok now to get back to chicken chit chat.

Here is another two for…..

Look to the left… all good there no Hooman…

Yes that is Flopsy up on the stall wall, I had to drag the ladder over and haul her butt down! Sheesh!

@BY Bob do you like those combs and wattles

Just spectacular!

Husband says y'all can help name this girl. I have been reinforcing their hawk cry by loudly saying "Hawk!"
So she needs a new one. She's just gorgeous and not a speck of glossy saddle feathers on her!

Try "Hawk" in other languages...

Skifteri is Albanian for example.

Matilda?

I think I'll get some barred rocks in spring. They are great all-rounders. Hopefully I can get hatching eggs but I could always set the brooder back up...
I also want to try cornish hens. They look so cute.

Dark Cornish or the Cornish hen like the grocery store?

 

[rural mouse]

My Wyandottey is attacking me! My thumb looks like hamburger. I will not back down! I’m in charge of this household, not him. Yeah he bites hard!

Maybe he's reinforcing the not chicken talk taxes....you're supposed to talk about him.

 

[BY Bob]

They are such awesome wee hens, I am sooooo glad I bought them, but feel badly I didn’t get the other three also. They are little clowns

Beautiful ladies. I just love them.

I am sad you had to suffer so much pain. Hopefully they at least offered you some pain relief.

How is your arm doing these days? When do you go back to see the specialist?

If the therapy you’re using right now doesn’t work will they do a plate and pins?

Matching combs! Sisters?

Bone stimulator seems to be helping w/pain but will know more next week on progress after Xray.
