cwalden, that sucks about her stealing your photos. I'm glad she took them down, but I'd still be awfully ticked.

That photoshop digital thing is a cool idea, if I did more professional work, I'd definitely do it.  At this point for me, I just watermark my pictures in such a way as to make it nearly impossible to photoshop it out. I don't do it to all, but to anything that I think could possibly be attractive to steal. For example, here's one of my blue laced red wyandottes that I hatched in Feb:

My legbars are coming along. Very slowly. My cockerel is all white, no crest. Female has a crest, and I think she's just a doll. I don't think she's anywhere near laying though. I think she's 4 months old. She still seems quite small compared to my RIR and wyandottes hatched in Feb. Are they a smaller breed in general?

I just posted one of my roosters on craigslist.   I have 3.  He seems like he really wants to be top dog.  We have another one that has been dominant since they arrived in their box and I am concerned that they might take the competition too far.  Here is the add if you know anyone looking for a nice rooster.

What color BLRW is that chick in the picture?

I wish you lived near me.  I live in Georgia and actually contacted Jordan Farms a few days ago.  Trying to talk my husband into getting a breeding Legbar trio.  If I do get to, it probably won't be until later this fall.  Good luck with your guy.  He looks great.

To all those concerned about stolen pictures, there is a Photoshop plugin that put s a digital watermark on your pictures. When someone tries to right click and steal it they get a message that tells them it is protected matieril. If they use it anyway you can find out because you can do a search for your images based on your Digimarc ID. It will find your pictures on the web. I put out the $99 for the professional version for a year because it made me sick to see someone accepting compliments for how "gorgeous" my Isbars were. I didn't want her maiking money off my birds!
