THANK YOU!
It was way easier than I expected and easier than my flat digital scale. Well the flat scale is perfect for weighing Tassels when she is broody because she just settles herself down on it in the hope it will hatch!
Anyway, I weighed Pooh and Calypso this evening. Piglet and Sylvie are little porcupines so I will wait on them, and Tassels looked like she was not going to accept me grabbing a chick. I might be brave enough to do that tomorrow.
Here is what I got:
Calypso: 2.6kg = 5.6lb
Pooh: 2.2kg = 4.93lb

Pooh looks the same size as Piglet and they are the same breed, so maybe Piglet is heavier than I was thinking. Pooh is very dense for her size!

Tax: this is why Pooh is so dense, she is constantly showing off her skills with the rat proof feeder - she uses is much more than anyone else (though you can see Sylvie in the background using the second feeder).

Hope the BYC software update allows us all back in tomorrow as I have some nice mugshots to share for Monday!

So glad it worked for you, this is how the Vets usually weigh small animals that like to run and fly. And also at farms. A baby goat can be weighted this way, or dogs and cats also.

Hmmmm I should weigh Missy and see how much she weighs now…. She a tub of lard!

Oh sorry forgot to mention I came home with some construction adhesive - I replaced the lids on my septic tank with those septic risers - no more digging up the lawn next time.

Now where did these two come from? More hijackers! I was terrified I tell you terrified!

They hopped into Ol Blue and told me ‘floor it, Hooman, we’re busting out!’

So what’s a gal to do ??? So I floored it! Scary aren’t they 😳

How much does Featherhead owe in taxes?

Probably more than you do, but any excuse for new pics!

Absolutely atrocious lighting for this series

but Castor and Sherlock were enjoying the day.


And a stern look from Nimbus
