Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

It's like a cat tower for chickens.

Yes exactly

I didn't think there was but I just wanted to be sure.
Impressive rooster!
What breed is he?

He, Sir Jaffar, was a bantam Cochin partridge roo. And the love of all my life and my tribe of chickens too. He died bravely in battle, against overpowering odds. He was fearless, brave, kind, and fair, as any knight should be. I honor his memory, by showing his picture.

So sad she's an egg eater! But on a brighter side that's less possible new chicks to deal with?

OH GOD IS THAT TRUE!!!

What's the milligrams in your fish mox capsules (amoxicillin)?

Let me get back to you on that. All I know, is it saved Coco, CeeCee, and Dakota from crossing the rainbow bridge. But it looks likely like the same jar I have. Which they won’t sell anymore (unless I go to Mexico)

You have no time to pull out 2 little nails?!

A couple years ago, there was a change enacted requiring a vet's prescription for antibiotics. I was treating Pip for salpingitis with amoxicillin that I had ordered a year before, just to have on hand. I wanted to get some more, and found a site that would sell it without a prescription. The site was a scam. I wrote about it in this thread:

Please be careful if you order from an unknown site.

Sir Jaffar!

Most honourable Sir Jaffar

All I really ask, is if someone would bake me a pie this late October. I prefer raspberry… not pumpkin pie!! Pumpkin makes me nauseous! FYI

How about Apple?
Or chocolate cake!

Yep - they still don’t like it!

Are the feet feather chickens any more work to maintain than other chickens?
I wasn't planning on getting one but I didn’t look at the feet of the chicks when I bought them.
So now I have a feather foot chicken.

I don’t have any issues, but I also have a large barn they are free to roam in all day, they like digging through the horses’ bedding (shavings) which I muck out every morning, so they are likley keeping their feet clean that way.

Just keep their run dry and free of poops and you won’t have any issues.
