After Barbara's giant meal of petunias and sweet potato vine, she went off to see the Ameraucana sisters. Maybe they had something better to eat, although the flowers had been delicious! Barbara had eaten two entire flats of impatiens earlier in the summer, so she had developed a taste for pink and white. She also learned to love hosta, and with a little help from her sister Buffy, ate an entire 10' long bed of variegated hostas.

The Ameraucana sisters were resting in their little jail coop, so they didn't know Barbara was outside when they called her "Barbara Big Butt"!
"Does this fence make me look fat?"

The Ameraucana sisters are getting out of jail tonight. How will Barbara extract her revenge?

Thanks for your kind comments, everyone. The Adventures of Barbara have taken on a life of their own, I don't know what she'll do next. The Ameraucana sisters are moving to the big girls coop tonight, so it should be pandemonium for the next few days. Especially after what they said about Barbara . . . . and the other hens are all climbing in with Wendy, who is "cranky pants" broody and she just started laying. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

Barbara makes me smile.

In anticipation of the Ameraucana sisters’ release from jail, the food people went out to clean the “Big House†and move the outside jail to fresh grass. Everyone will have to be confined until the Ameraucana sisters get their street smarts and can find their way back home. They do not yet know that the food people are easy marks, so act hysterical anytime they approach.

Barbara sat in the corner under the nest box and watched the stupid Ameraucana sisters. She had a smug look on her face when the Ameraucana sisters flapped and squawked and ran all over the coop.

Barbara’s Big Butt was coming in handy. The food people (who also double as the cleaning people) had to make her move the Big Butt so they could clean the floor. Barbara’s eyes glittered with rage, but she got up and stalked off.

The jig was up! She had been sitting on 21 eggs way back in the corner! That might explain the small number of eggs the food people had found lately. They even had to take down the sign that said “Chickie Girls Fresh Eggs†because there weren’t enough to share! Barbara hasn’t laid any of her own, but has been practicing her nesting until she has it right.

That is some chicken you have there! She must bring you so much joy. My Barred Rocks are the sweetest and always the biggest entertainers out of the flock-but not as entertaining as Barbara.
