Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

What am I gonna do with this little chicken Elsa? I gave her, her own ear of corn. Some strip steak, a ritz cracker and fresh water, but she’s still squawking at me. I checked her over for any damage and found none. But still she squawks!

She looks like a Tinsel.

I like this name too!

Isabel eyes, seem okay. If you see something let me know. Bits collect on the rims, that changes all the time.

Her friend Picaboo, my impression is she always comes around when anything is happening with Isabel or whenever she is separated, Picaboo will go hang with her. So she was right here when I took these pics

So, I named my SLW
Tinsel- she's more white breasted

But I love Lacy for my curly feathered LO.

Thank you for the beautiful names!

My LO Lavern also has those feathers - I think it’s called ‘shredded’ - I think it makes them look extra fluffy, sort of like a silkie

Mugshots for Monday. It’s Piglet. And yes, she has gone broody.
Piglet is a mean broody but so far has never stuck it out. She seems more determined this time.
Sigh.

She looks fine to me, maybe she is growing into them.

Have to say they are looking lovely young ladies now They aren’t babies anymore!

Nobody went broody here this year. Tomatilla went broody for a few days earlier in the year but she got broken somehow. Wish I could have just one broody per year, it would make life easier!

Integration continuing. Going pretty well. After some initial chasing everyone has settled down.
The Bigs decided to block the Littles safe space coop entrance

But it's okay, the Littles eventually settled in this corner opposite

Isabel's right eye does not look right, will examine. Her left eye had two bubbles in the corner yesterday evening but not today. Maybe Terramycin in her eyes soon.

Meanwhile, possibly need to lower the Littles coop run guard one more notch?
Tedi reaching in, can't quite get under there. Annie in front

Exactly! Right? One broody for 2 weeks and done. But no…. Have to have 4 or 5! And for 6 weeks at a time.

How are you doing lhicken? I hear very little rain out there
