Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[featherhead007]

$5? That’s cheap! I’m getting $8 bucks for ten eggs, sometimes less eggs than that.
Now I’m not getting any eggs, so no money either way.

And I have a closet full of empty egg cartons! Oh, disparity.

Yes I have been watching the News - well we knew the good weather couldn’t last.

It’s been nice here, but all down hill from here.

It's been raining cats and dogs here today.

I'm so pleased I managed to get done what I had to today. Weather or not

I have 4 dozen right now plus almost another dozen. But I will need to tell the person I sell them to that I will be increasing the price to $5/ dozen next month.

Hope he doesn’t have a fit about it…

I'd love to buy your delicious eggs

Cesario update:

Circumstances meant that we couldn't get Cesario off the roost in the dark and he was absolutely miserable about being grabbed unceremoniously! It made me wonder if he instinctually knew that most often when a cockerel gets grabbed in that way, that his life is over.

I was so pleased that my husband was willing to do a two hour drive to come and help me with Cesario, the cockerel that he was adamant that we should not keep! Maybe Cesario has won him over! So far, he is a very good boy.

We soaked his feet and discovered a hard piece of mud/bark wedged up in the webbing above his toes. I removed that and gave him a bit of a blow dry since it's well below freezing outside.

We took him back out to the ladies and he was still limping a bit. My husband wondered if he was just used to favouring that foot and will adjust.

I just checked on him again, but he is sitting in a nest keeping one of the pullets company while she lays her egg.

Raining cats and dogs? Don’t step in any poodles

@SimpleJenn
For ad blocking, I use the following:
On dekstop, I use the Brave browser. Built in ad blocker works and most of the time bypasses YouTube's anti adblocker nonsense: https://brave.com/download/
Firefox with uBlock Origin also works great: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/?redirect_source=firefox-com
uBlock: https://ublockorigin.com/



On mobile, I also use Brave. Both on Android and iOS.

If you use Android, you can also try YouTube Revanced (YouTube app but modded for no ads) or Grayjay.
I have not gotten Revanced to work right, and it is not the easiest to set up first time.
Grayjay works great so far, and I've had no issues with it. https://grayjay.app/

How is your chooks derriere?

There is still that bald spot, but the feathers seem to be getting a bit better.

The chooks might not be able to go outside at all this week, because a mountain lion was sighted in my area

Last week we had a couple of unusually warm nights, this morning we had our first frost. Past 9am and just barely 30°, but the sun is out.
