The Flutterbunk Flock

alot of news!!

2012-01-03T04:48:00.000-08:00

The chickens geting chased by a pine martin and they started going up trees!! Cream and mascerpony always go up trees. But ALL of them are now going up trees!!! even the cockerels. One night when i was in bed i heard a really scary noise like a bukbukbukbukeeeeeeeee and in the morning pancake was missing he was the last of the favarolles.
and wierdly another night coco and carob went missing, now theres only 1 road island red left. poor chocolate doesent have any friends left, and kujo was ill for a bit, and i went outside just as they were going to bed, he was sitting there trying to get into the house.
I lifted him into the house but sadly he died coming out the house in the morning RIP Kujo, Coco, Carob and Pancake. Me and Mummy made a run for the chickens so that no more went missing in the night, and it worked for about a week and then we kept foregetting BUT some of them still went in the house!! then Violet got ill, and she died in the night. RIP Violet. Lets have a min of silence for them.

The chickens were in the snow for a bit but it all melted. its a horrible day today, I'll get some photos of my toy hens today though (hopefully)

2011-02-10T08:07:00.000-08:00

We went into A&I shop today for chicken food we went off organic food for the winter, but we're on organic food again so that means spring is coming! We bought two bags so that means the lucky chickens will get two weeks of food! The food we use normally is The Organic Feed Company but the non organic feed we use in the winter is Dodson and Horrell the chickens are all fine by the way

OK about the new template what background should I use, Chicks or Grass?

Copper Splash (her Real name is Crystal) is a very good hen :) she lays lovely dark brown eggs :) and is a loner chicken

Jet Jade and Saphire forgetmenot died :( :( :'(

Funnyness, Snowyness and Eggieness

2010-02-24T05:18:00.000-08:00

There is so much more snow, I hope this time it will stop coming for this winter, tablet tried to lay an egg in the onions! It was on Saturday or Monday and we got a massive egg, it is the size of an egg shaped tennis ball! We will eat it today. In my next post I will tell you how many yolks it has. Probably three! (I hope it wasn't sore on the hen) But I hope it does! I'm off to see if it has been done now. Bye

Sunshine and Snow

2010-02-17T01:04:00.000-08:00

There has been more snow but sunny! I hope it melts cos (you know what) I hate it. Roni has gone to the postie. He has girls to be with. He has been away a week now. The chickens have checking out the bunnies for the last two days. Anyway they have been fine and that's good!

A Few Little Things

2010-01-24T01:50:00.000-08:00

Hello Readers,

I am maybe going to Thainston in may to get some chickens! I'm glad the winter's ending and spring is coming. The grass is all most more, and is fighting the snow away. The chickens are happy, so that's good and I think that the snow is boring, just cos I'm fed up of it! Now lets chat about the hens, Ronnie has been doing a funny walk across the snow parts of the ground, and pancake has been looking just like an old man...

I hope this year I get more chicks because I love chicks. I can't wait about the eggs come out of the hens because they're just eating their way through organic layers pellets and not laying one single egg! But Bannock has layed two eggs but no more now!!

Sorcha

What to do??

2010-01-21T09:26:00.001-08:00

I'll try it and see, so will you tell me if you like it?
I have chosen one, so I'll see if it suits my blog.

Sheep Trouble

2010-01-13T03:53:00.000-08:00

Dad called me, saying: "there's a sheep at the door!"

I called back saying: "what?", and then I went downstairs.

We Wondered about what to feed it, but finally Dad knew.

"lets give it neep'', he said, ''do sheep like neep?'' I asked,

''yes'' he replied, so we got a neep and cut it up into four bits.

We went outside, but the sheep went down one of the chickens' paths.

We finally got it out, and chased it up the drive it ran quickly.

When we got to the top we were going to give it food, but it ran home.

So it didn't eat the food we had! We had carrots too!!!!

Sorcha xx

Go, Snow, Go!

2010-01-12T10:46:00.000-08:00

The snow is melting fast, dad went out to get some chicken food in elgin.
I have been making shortbread, (if you don't know what is is, its butter, flour and sugar.

The feast is over!

2010-01-02T08:18:00.000-08:00

The first day's gone! And into the month we go!!!!

The chickens were going along the paths today.

Here's the story of new year's day:

First I woke up and had a huge breakfast of cloutie dumpling, then I can't really remember what next, anyway I think I went on lord of the rings on wikia, at 2.50 pm I watched the railway children. At tea time I had prawn cocktail then venison, after tea we watched doctor who, and some other programme about it! Then I went to bed, and then in a hour and a half I went to sleep!

So that's what I did on new year's day!

New Year

2010-01-01T01:58:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year Everyone!
The Chickens Are Looking Forward To The Spring, Because It Will Be Easter, and that's like Christmas for us. Here's pics of a cloutie dumpling, mum and I made:

one of them when its just out of the pan.

both of them when there cooled down.

mum's one (it looks like a brain on one side and a tick on the other!

this is my one

2009

2009-12-31T00:55:00.000-08:00

I've had quite a sad year because lots of the chickens died. So here's a record of them:

Cath, was a lovely copper Maran that died in about feb.

Spelt, was an ISA brown that died in apr

one of the chicks died in jul

wheat died in sep

buffer died in jun

fudge died in aug

That's all the chickens that died last year, so lets just have moment to remember them.

We've had our moment to remember them. There have been happy bits of this year as well, like all the chicks we've had.

There's been Tablet's chicks and bluey's chicks, Roni, Pancake, Bannock, Jet Jade, Copper Crystal and Forget-me-not.

I hope I get more chicks in 2010. But who knows!

Good luck for 2010! And bye bye to 2009!!!

Merry Christmas!!

Woooooooooooooooooooooo hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Welcome back Violet

2009-04-27T11:54:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I decided that I would throw Violet's eggs down the bank......Lucy and Gerry agreed, when she was off her eggs I sneaked up to her nest (with a tub to carry them in)
I picked an egg up and put it in and again and again and again and again and again then suddenly I broke an egg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...................................................It was soooooooooooooo stinky!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ran as fast as my legs would carry me, and in a min i got to the burn and they went in!
Violet ran to her nest but no eggs to be seen.............She looked and looked but no eggs. She fineally went in to the garden and setteled down.
The arucana eggs have just been sent, so two more days till they come.

Not looking good with the broodys

2009-04-25T02:13:00.000-07:00

Tablet's chicks are over jue so prob not hatch. It's not looking good with the hatching eggs too, 6 have but the others have not come yet.............

We've got 3 new broodys (in the nest boxes) Carib Coco and Barley.

Bad news and good news

2009-04-22T09:34:00.000-07:00

Sadly we found out today that Violet's chicks won't hatch. But we bought some eggs instead.
I got Friesians and Lucy, Gerry and Finlay got lavender araucanas. One of Violet's eggs had smashed.

3 weeks ago yesterday Violet went missing. I'm so upset that i cant see Violet much for 3 weeks and two days. I wonder If Violet will come off her eggs in the next two days.

We are building a hen house made out of old pallets. We have done the door the back the sides and run. All we need to do is the door hook, the bedding and the roof.

Lots of chicken pics

2009-04-17T11:07:00.000-07:00

Violet's chicks will hatch very soon, maybe on Sunday.

These are the whitelos up their tree. They snuggle up together every single night!

Here is Marri on her hatchday.

This is Kujo and Fudge in love..........

Here is a chicken logo that Gerry drew. He is called Chickeny.

My first blue egg of 2009 and Marri's hatchday

The second one and the last one are of the hen that went missing. Lucy and Gerry followed her to the top of a hill. I'm can't wait till the chicks hatch. My faverolles are going to have pasta names. I might have got cochins but Lucy and Gerry said no. I wanted Jersey Giants too

All is well with the broodys

2009-04-05T02:14:00.000-07:00

The broodys are fine 2 days ago we put eggs under the isa. here is a song about her:

An other nest of eggs, hatching eggs and a broody Isa

2009-04-01T10:36:00.000-07:00

Lots of thing have happened in the world of chickens today.

First of all when we went out to elgin and got some pellets. But just as we got to the top of the drive I saw a hen! She was laying an egg (about the 20th). When we got home it was fine a few hours later Gerry found the broody she is in a den thing with dead trees over her as the frame and sticks as the roof. I found a better place but I'm not moveing her.

Soon after tea (dinner) (supper) We bought eggs for her to mum. I got salmon faverolles Gerry got cream legbars and Lucy got anconas (like leghorns)

She came back!

2009-03-31T12:51:00.000-07:00

The hen came back. She has gone missing again. We are thinking that she is broody. She'll have chicks!

The case of the missing chicken

2009-03-30T05:49:00.000-07:00

One of my hens has gone missing. I don't know how to spell her name. Lucy + I looked all over the garden. I hope She comes back soon.

Nest of eggs

2009-03-29T13:42:00.000-07:00

I found a nest of eggs. I think they are Mairi eggs. Some are chocolate brown and some are light brown but they are all spotty and it is the spots that I recognise from other Mairi eggs.

So, that means she's been laying eggs of all shades of brown.

I was following an Isa Brown down a bank in the garden where there's lots of nettles and raspberry bushes and there were Rhode Island Reds stratching about and then I saw the nest of eggs.

I ran in to the house and told Lucy and Gerry that I saw a nest of eggs (I didn't know that they were Mairi eggs then). I went out again and realised that they were Mairi eggs.

Lucy came out to see them. There were about a dozen. Lucy took all except one inside, so Mairi had more space to lay. We will start checking there every day.

I was looking for some Quenella eggs because she's laying somewhere else that we don't know about.

I will look tomorrow for them. You usually find them when you're not looking for them.

I have found eggs down that bank before laid by a Rhode Island Red. Last year I found lots of Quenella eggs and there's still a few bits of shell left.

I'm hoping that I find the Quenella eggs tomorrow. Fingers crossed I will find them.

2009-03-07T09:14:00.000-08:00

This is Cath a few weeks ago. Just looking at her makes me sad. i think that she might get put down tomorrow. It is very sad that she is ill. but she is better now!

OH NO NO NO NOOOOO poor Cath might be put to sleep...boooooo hoooooo

2009-03-07T04:00:00.000-08:00

POOR Cath might be put down. Hope she dosn't. But I have had ill chickens before like buffy my buff sussex. which coud not see in one eye and later she coud not see at all. So Gerry had to put her down. And her brother. which had the same thing as her. And cusdard my cream crested legbar. they are greay and brown and she was white! She just died in the night. I think that her hart just stoped. And her sister Quail which had the same thing as cath. and some cocks who were put down for us to eat. And they were nasty ones. Kujo is a very nice cock. and last a white leghorn called: Yoghurt. Which had the same thing.
I hope she gets bet- oh she eat some food today.
I hope she gets better soon.

Oh dear an ill chook.............boo hoo

2009-03-06T07:50:00.000-08:00
