Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

OMG. Geronimo can get up to the adult roost. Cookie tried but just fell short.
It was so fast I almost missed it. Freeze frame. The red ring is Geronimo flying from the grown-up roost, over the heads of Tassels and the other littles, through the door and down the hill.
If I were Tassels, by this stage I would be resorting to the gun bottle to calm my nerves.

Why do you think I put all the babies under mamas? I wasn't going to be responsible for the shenanigans!

It was a process. Observe, think, read more on the rooster behavior, think, observe....

It still could not have been easy.

Castor has a friend.View attachment 4196924this is Bijou. She's 3 months old, mama wandered into a friend's place and turned out to be pregnant. Also, mama looks to be at least part Maine Coon.

Oh that is where they are going wrong - no tail feathers!

That will make it harder to steer.

Are you insinuating that I might be bipolar? I’ve never been to either north or south! View attachment 4197421

You don't have to be bipolar to benefit from a good mood vitamin

Morning update. Nerve block is completely gone and trust me I miss it. My entire arm, including my hand is swollen, my hand is twice the size of my left currently. I was told this would be normal. My blood sugar levels, we shall not talk about them. Stupid stubborn highs. I knew to expect this, and it will probably last for a couple days. I was told to keep it between 200 to 300 from the doctor who told me the sheer trauma of the surgery would cause my body to react and my sugar level to raise for a few days. I am used to a happy 140 to 150 range and it is taking everything in my power right now to keep it below 300. Cue a sick headache and nausea on top of everything else. Well the nausea could also be a symptom of the Percocet that was prescribed for pain control. Trust me when I say I do not handle pain meds very well at all. At least with these things are not moving on the walls and I do not feel like a total zombie, just a little loopy. A plus though, this morning I got movement back in my fingers. As long as my keyboard is in my lap I can type somewhat normally. I am passing time before my next dose of medicine and my next nap in a hour by going back and reading everything I have missed. I went back 500 pages and landed around the first of June. I have really missed a lot let me tell you.

Your swollen arm/hand symptoms for the first days do sound normal so far. Good that you know what to do about your blood level. It's good you have the BYC to keep your mind occupied even w/ typing challenges ~ BYC got me thru boredom & off my pity pains cuz I couldn't take ANY kind of pain meds after surgery. Hope you get a little entertained with us yo-yo's on here

Well it was going to happen. Tassels is teaching the Littles to be Jungle Fowl.
The hawk is around but this is probably the safest outside place there is.
