He really is!





brown is what I put in the spreadsheet, but I'm sure there's an official color. I wonder if it's partridge?

Yes, Partridge

Your cropped image:

Is this your original image? I ask because it's an odd size and most of the metedata is missing.

Yes it is my image.
I had manually cropped it before submitting it - just to make her more central. Is that an issue?
I don’t know about metadata except I did hope not to share location data on my photos. Could it be to do with that?

Yes it is my image.

I know it's your image.

What is the size of the original image?

Is that an issue?

Your location won't show up, but this should:

Here is the image as I shot it. I only know to point and shoot on my iPhone so if that doesn’t work I guess poor Piglet gets disqualified!

Here goes - as I took it.

what's up with the strange light sources and the black overlay? I can see the halo...

Pretty hens! Is the red one a red sex link?


Look how long his tail feathers are!

Handsome boy and I think Sultan suits him.

Cute picture, but it's the wrong format and people aren't allowed in the photos.

It isn’t an overlay. The iPhone camera has a portrait setting that allows you to pick different lighting effects.
This one is called ‘studio’.
I am sorry as I seem to be causing a lot of trouble with this picture. There is nothing sinister going on. I just took a picture of one of my chickens and thought it looked nice. If you and others don’t like it that is fine, I still think she looks lovely.
Here is another photo using the same option on the phone camera.

Awkward fuzz/feather stage featuring chubby cheeks. This is Jasmin.
