Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Sylvester017]

Mops, feather dusters , and sometimes ever toilet bowl cleaners. But silkies are not really chickens!

Bob, I dare you to do what I have done today.. seven hungry beaks in the house eating my prime rib dinner. It’s okay though, I have a Turkey pot pie I’m saving for myself

If only they were chickens......

Your Royal Magistifullness!

Queen Aurora, please take heed to my humble request. Yes, I’m very sorry that Sir Jaffar lost his life in battle, and he will never be forgotten. I humbly ask that Mr Wyandottey, from my court be considered a prospect for knighthood soon. Here he has proven his worth and master of all other roosters and hens here, at Cluckingham Court. Signed, your most humble hooman servant Alexander Wilmington Wayne Sherrill the ll

Ps. Knighthood from her majesty the queen Aurora, does not come easy. “There is no greater sacrifice, than to give one’s life for another!” That was sir Jaffar’s shield and the motto he lived by. I see this in Mr Wyandottey. Maybe in a few years he will prove me right.

Oh they are beauties, I feel sorry for them being captive they are such aerial creatures.

Did they say why they were in captivity?

So many times sanctuaries have to keep predators cuz their injuries are so permanent (can't fly, missing limb, diabetic, etc) they can't be released back in the wild . Hope that's why these hawks were kept.

I need to remind you that Sir Jaffar was a Bantam (rest in peace sir honored and beloved pet) he was vicious, a true warrior despite his small stature, he was brave and magnificent until the very end.

As said before we have no experience w/ roo's ... who I understand bantam roo's (including Silkie roo's) are every much hero roo's as bigger breed roo's. A chicken roo is a chicken no matter what his size. & I would hate losing ANY chicken... it was a loss even the couple stinker hens we had to re-home to keep a peaceful/safe backyard flock.

Let's get a tale of the tape. What does Ginny weigh? What is her record in sanctioned bouts? We can set some odds here.

I just had two in eating the finest of cheeses.

I will present you petition to the queen but he has not been at the job very long. A knighthood needs to be earned by deeds.
