Easter Egger club!

@Sylvester017
My Wheaten Ameraucana's photo has a sharper focus while my easter egger's photo has a softer focus. Both are good pictures, but since I wanted the two photos to convey different feelings I focused differently for each shot. I am not a photographer, but I find it soothing to take pictures while hanging out with my chickens.

Animals are good photography subjects but catching a chicken doing something unusual is really fun! My favorite thing is to catch chickens running with one foot up and one on the ground! They never stop moving!



 
we had a frizzy bantam go broody mid december, she was set on 2 of her own eggs and 6 from our other 3 hens, not sure of their breeds except one is a sussex
yesterday, the day after it snowed she hatched out 3 from our 2 unknown breeds, and today one from our sussex so we have at least 3 more types of EE to go with our first EE hatched in the june from our orpington... the father is a french strain araucana in my avatar, its pity our araucan hens stopped laying mid october when they molted otherwise she would have been hatching those too,

4 of 5 araucana of summers hatch turned out male.

Good job Frizzy chickie. What exactly is a Frizzy? a Frizzle Silkie? How often does she go broody?
 
Quote: I don't know about Canon, I never had one myself. But you're right about Nikon. Ever since digital cameras took over, Nikon's quality has really hit the skids, especially their point and shoot cameras. I got my Nikon FE (film) SLR used in 1980; and in the almost 40 years I've had it, it has been on a two week safari through Egypt, Kenya, Tanzania and in a bicycle bag during a 7 month, 8,400 mile bicycle tour across the country and back. It is still working great,and takes fantastic pictures.




On that same trip I went through 5 Nikon P&S cameras (or should I say POS cameras?) in just the first four months! Finally a salesman in Carson City sold me an Olympus point and shoot, which actually had a metal(!) case. It lasted the rest of the trip and still works today, five years later!
