Post Phoenix Pics Please

[mopargal1972]

Hey all, just wanted to post updated pics of Champ. He is now 4 months old and starting to look a lot more like a gold duckwing, but not quite.

Sorry there are so many pics. He is quite a ham.

This is my Silver Phoenix Fawkes, He is almost three months old and is already starting to crow.

the name! I have a Fawkes too. Champ (my phoenix bantam) started crowing at 3 months too. He sounded really funny at first, kinda pathetic actually. Is Fawkes a LF or bantam?

I am not 100% sure, I would have to ask the person who gave me the eggs... Although I want to say that he is LF.

I had two silvers hatch. One is staying silver and the other has some very pretty gold colors coming in. They're not very easy to photograph naturally! Always running off like the camera is some kind of terrible chicken eating monster.

Don't ask me why, but they insist on dust bathing in my boyfriend's cactus garden. Brave little buggers. He has since fenced it off because they were displacing the soil and breaking roots. They're very cute dust-bathers, I'm guilty of doing nothing to stop them. I only photograph! He's gonna cook me AND my birds one of these days!

I love these little guys! They're very sweet. They go into the "I don't like to be caught, but love to be cuddled" category.

Just thought I would post new pics of my two Bantam Phoenix boys...I'm thinking that atleast one will be a silver duckwing I'm still not sure about the other. They are about 13 weeks old now.

Now I just need to get my hands on some pullets/hens and that probably won't be until next spring. I think I will give them a few of my extra NN pullets for now They're LF but maybe if I'm lucky I'll get some longtail NNs out of it.

LOL​
