Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

Any friend of Cochin is a friend of mine!

Here’s a Bantam Cochin, I will never get out of my heart or mind.
I actually saw a therapist after losing my best buddy Sir Jaffar. Grief is a natural part of life! I sure do miss the little guy though

Fluffy butt Friday already? How many days have I missed?!

It’s only Wednesday, tomorrow Thursday. I might suggest that your doctor adjust your medication

A couple of sticks, a stick and a rock, a stick and a piece of metal.....useful reason for keeping tin cans (well washed) mount on a post/branch/wall/fence, and leave a stick close to each. Bear wanders in, snatch the stick and start drumming. The metal doesn't sound quite natural to a bear's ears and they can be scattered all over as mini drums. Metal wind chimes can be scattered about too...

This must be a good year for prolific black bears. DD/SIL came back from their Alaska cruise last week & said a mamma black bear & her 2 cubs were waiting at the bottom of their zip lining cable! Luckily the cubs were up a tree & mamma didn't charge at the surprised zipping tourists.

Zip/bear tx ~ more Pomegranate time

That had the potential to get ugly fast! Glad it turned out OK.

He looks BIG!!
What did you come home with?

Kelly said she resisted debatable

The ones to worry about are the very young just separated from mama (happens I spring though) and very old bears. Those are the ones that become nuisance bears and can become dangerous.

If you can get electric fencing I would put that up around your animals. That’s about the only thing to keep out bears.

My wall sitters - I really wish they would learn to go into the hen house to roost.
