Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[RebeccaBoyd]

At least he is more her size...sort-of. And their offspring would look cute! A wild-haired (feathered) Mrs. LC - so darling!

Clyde x Mrs LC would produce more little tiny terrors. Almost the exact same cross as Turkey.

I have came to the conclusion that in time I will also strive to add in a white silkie. Black will always be my favorite color. I have grown very fond of my partridges having had a buff, then silver and now gold. With the addition of Davy I can safely say I also adore blue silkies. I will get chocolates this year. I made the mistake of seeing them in person, definitely on my "must have" list. Thanks to Davy if I can hatch off a Blue pullet next year Splash's could be possible....yes please.

I also want in no particular order....
Buff
Red
mottled
paint
barred or cuckoo
Lavender or self blue.

Basically anymore to me whether it be recongized or not if it comes in a color in silkies, I WANT IT. Maybe not red pyle.....those are still iffy to me. Whites are a must have in the next year or two though.

Sigh, I still find it hard to believe how hard I have fallen for the silkies. 4 years ago now, they were ALL ugly weird alien chickens. Whites were the ugliest of all and yet here I am plotting to add whites. Dang it, it is all Branch's and Poppy's fault, may they rest in peace.

White Chickens rule!

Sneak into your neighbor’s yard and cut a few trees?

I have a 1000 acres of bush behind me

Alas no way to cut them into fence boards!

The broken boards make nice roosts for the chooks, I trim off the broken ends and lay them on the flat across bales or logs. Works great! And good for reusing the boards.

This is a riddle:
A guy is in a room no windows or doors. Only walls floor and ceiling.
There is a table in the middle of the room, and a mirror on one wall.
How does that guy get out of there?

He’s dreaming….

He’s actually a butterfly!
