Here's the stance and feet. Sorry I can't get these to post in the thread properly. My iPad gives me fits. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151252262014203&l=4330883574

I'm trying to figure out what this chick is. It's almost three weeks old. If this picture up,iAds, I'll upload more in my next post. [=https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151251747289203&l=799f355722][/]
