Thank you! Yes, it was with my iPhone. I think it takes decent photos when you are outdoors and don't have any harsh midday lighting, but man forget about any type of low light! I have to stick with a real deal camera for that.

Thought so! And yeah, that's how most phones are I think. :/ though even my camera isn't great at low light or indoors it's a Nikon Coolpix L830 so still technically a point & shoot but it looks fancier and it actually is really good it's just some it's not or you have to play with the settings. I have to get a DSLR haha I should learn how to edit though cause often that's what makes good photos great

The show yes. Though to do the costume contest you have to have another bird not used in showmanship that is dressed up as well and I had nothing for my birds also now that my birds are almost 2 years old they're too big for the carriers I have. Ice got to ride shotgun in my car on the way here. I got 2nd in Showmanship Senior division and Reserve Champion Over All! I had lots of fun doing it. Unfortunately this was my last year in youth showmanship. I might try and see if I can be a judge for next years show. Some people thought I was trying to do pirate since I had my two arm braces on a white buttoned shirt.

Congrats!

Your silver laced wyandotte is stunning. Did you get her from a breeder or a hatchery?

You're welcome say thank you with white peafowl hatching eggs hahaha

gotta try but no he stunning and you both look great. I never got to show animals when I was younger(wow that makes me sound old I'm only turning 25 in December) and I really wish I had

Hey! It's never too late to show animals. I'm about to turn 33 on the 5th and I entered my first poultry show in 2013. I did show horses in my early 20's though... But that's different!

edit.
Oh, look at that! I literally noticed after I posted this message...I have a little birthday cake + 4 yrs under my avatar. lol I guess I' started hanging around here on the forum around my birthday.

That's cool and happy birthday! Also yes I would like to show but I wouldn't even know where or how to begin showing. I do have a pair of black oegb that are from show stock. One thing I always wanted to do was take my sheltie to an obedience class or do agility with her. She's smart as a whip but no e or ten years now wow idk when we got so old. But she tore out her cruciate ligament last December and idk if its fair to ask her to do that still. Kinda a bummer as Molly is my first personal dog and I've never met a better dog and people tell me that all the time... Is it just down hill from here? Lol

Happy Early Birthday! They still have shows for the adults but it's a caged quality show which only includes: chickens, ducks, and geese.

In my opinion Poultry would be the most challenging. The reason why is because you have to be able to identify other varieties of breeds of different species, know lots more. Hard to explain exactly everything but I can still remember the questions and answers to what the judge asked and said.

Sanna, I never knew you were just a young whippersnapper. I thought with your intellect and abilities, you were a supreme adult leader. Geez I'm 68 and knowledgeable about junk food with a major in ice cream. That sums it up.

Chickendreams - maybe your sheltie could be a therapy dog. It's not strenuous activity and it's such a great service to provide. My niece's dog keeps flunking because he won't stop jumping on people. She has tried everything.
