Here's a link to the post with the two new chicks (not Faverolles) hatched under my Wyandotte bantam broody hen on the 28th: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=1696289#p1696289

Your pics have great DOF. What camera do you use?

It is a Nikon D80. The lens I used for these photos is an AS-S Nikkor 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6G ED. I have a top mount flash and arm bracket that I haven't used for chicken photos yet. It might improve the photos even more. I crop most of them and currently use Aperture to improve the colors, lighting, etc. I'm relatively happy with it, but I'd like to try new 105mm macro offered by Nikon.

Ooh, nice. I have the D60 and love it. Personally I'm saving up for a telephoto lens so I can get more nature photos.
