Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Sylvester017]

Traffic Jam at the coop door going to roost ~ Buff Partridge Ginny got tired waiting at the back of the line, she gunned her motor, then passed the littles. She's usually the very last after dark but this time she got impatient.

Rosie is hurting right now. I'm proud of her though as she did the hard part which she originally did not want to do. She put the halter on him for the final time and lead him down to the trailer and loaded him up with tears running down her cheeks. She is welcome to go visit him and the farm whenever she wants.

Safe travels old man. Thank you for everything you taught Rosie. Enjoy you golden years of retirement. I hope you know you are taking a huge piece of all of our hearts with you.

to Rosie! It's not an easy decision to make. Rebecca you have raised an incredible young lady.

My hat is off to you, Rosie. What beautiful thing to do for an old friend.

Rebecca, your daughter is a wonderful human being.

Non-bearded are keepers. I didn't think so till we got this little Moorhead. She's our funny girl & has the cutest tiny wattles & the turquoise ears show up better.
