Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Debbie292d]

Honestly, they look like silkiest. They don’t count as chickens. You could have as many feather dusters as you want.
I honestly prefer a vacuum cleaner instead of feather dusters.

Of course, they're silkies, and the hens lay eggs, so there!

I suppose it's not like you can return your clothing to the former girlfriend. I wouldn't want your clothes back either.

My tax for continuing this:

I've got four buff roosters, two with black on them. I've got to decide as I can't keep them all, but this one's my favorite. There's an older one a bit lighter than him.

Do you think that the former girlfriend would maybe give me the house back that I bought for her?

I am sure he will be fine. They will work it out, tis the way of the chicken.

Ours usually do too. Some take longer, and it goes on for weeks. I've not interceded much, and if I have, it's only because one is insanely violent and blood is being drawn. Then my interceeding was done with a 20-gauge.

My next rant:
Some homeless people have been using my church as a sleeping shelter outside of the buildings in the bushes, under the awnings. Some make a mess and others don’t. My responsibility is to keep the yards clean cut, the trash removed, bushes trimmed clean, and the junk left behind by the homeless removed. Now, I don’t know about you, but when I find a homeless man not alive anymore in his car parked on my church lot, I start to think about homeless, and drug use, I get a defensive attitude towards them. That church is my responsibility, my part time job is still important to me. Anyone who rolls the losing dice, have a situation, and can’t help themselves, can be homeless. I understand that
Every time I show up, I give them 15 minutes to collect their belongings and leave the property. Then I pray for them and then I start my three hour work. And I work hard to make the yards and flora look nice.
Rant about over, but I’m pretty sure I missed something.

You can’t be responsible for anyone but yourself first and foremost. Take care of yourself so you can take care of your chooks, then your job.

As for those who live in such a manner, know that mental health and addiction is not a new thing, and one needs to ask for help and want help before they can get help. Sometimes they never get to that point. That is not your responsibility. All you can do is as you say, pray for them.

You must always take care of yourself first so that you will be of use to others, such as your chooks.

They are calling for snow this week - so I thought I would post a photo of the wimps - they don’t like snow.

You’re kidding right?

Gorgeous and adorable!

 

[Ponypoor]

Not as easy as it seems

Yes

I know

I am living the nightmare of multiple Roos

They need to go…..

Just to make it more complicated - so do iguana - lay eggs. Not a chicken!

You’re kidding right?

Nope! A neighbor took Lucifer and renamed him. She put him with her Brahmas. He learned to ride.

The other two satanic roosters are history. I don't want to pass those genes on to my flock or anyone else's. One murdered a hen and was in process of killing another.
