Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Sylvester017]

That is so sweet. I have revised it several times. A little more cleanup and I may just try and get it published. I pick it up every couple of months and refine it.

Super cute! Calender/Contest worthy!

Grandma is adorable!

My username is what I used for 20 years at the police dept. Back when I started, radios were terrible so we all used our last names and the badge number as that could be understood better than just rattling off badge numbers, but someone else and I had the same last name, so I took Debbie292d. It stuck with me there, and everywhere pretty much since then.

Coincidental ~ I worked graveyard shift in the police department 1966-67 in a small town w/ only 6 units/1 officer each unit per shift. Nowadays everything is stepped up compared to those less criminal times ~ same crimes just less frequent than today's incidents.

During our 2015 yard remodel we had to imprison our 4 hens while our contractor operated a Bobcat to tear down old fencing to build a block wall. It was only for a couple days but our free range yard birds were confused being "jailed"

If I'm not mistaken you all have KUSC down there. That's something I remember listening to in the car a lot. All classical music.

I'll pay tax. This statement is here to get the tax collectors to demand tax, then realize I said I was going to pay it, in turn causing them to have to pay SHRA .

KUSC we listen to now. But back in the '50's I listened to KPOL which not sure it's still active?

This was the only other thing, not sure if I shared it here yet.

PTR is young spreading herself between school, riding interests, & chickeneering. Pray she gets plenty of rest for all her industrious pursuits. She loves animals & we support her for all she does for them. She is a conscientious young lady.

I hope PTR doesn't lose hope treating bumblefoot ~ it's a long process taking at least 1/2 hour daily warm Epsom foot soaks & antibiotic/prid vetwraps. It can take dedicated daily treatments for weeks to a month or more to get the bumble out. We had one hen that took over two months to treat both feet at the same time.

And today's project (the assembly) for a niece who loves bunnies and is fascinated by older sibling's owl hat (that I also made) to match owl stuffed animal.View attachment 3990609

How talented you are! A Lop ear bunny!

Mine won’t even look at banana! I have tried so many times with all of them.

Mine won't touch pumpkin! Maybe it's the scary faces?!

Grandma has a question for you all.
She wants to know how you all got your BYC usernames. Mine is quite obvious so there's no need for me to explain.
She's eager to hear your answers!

I'm not nearly as inventive as everyone else. My username is my first name and my middle and last initials. People tell me they think of me as Sally Peanut Butter, though, and that fits. I love PB.

Tax:

One of the Bielefelders on my lap as a chick. Maybe Sunny? Anyway, a mug for Monday.
