posting a pic

[leos-mama]

Hi can I post a pic of my ladies on here without photobucket or sorts???? I would really like some help identifying some of my girls. I was so inexperienced (and maybe a little over excited) on recieving my girls I think I have been duped a little - though I must stress I wouldnt change a thing now.
I know my silkie is a silkie though not sure how old!, My 2 warrens are self expanitary! However my leghorn - not sure if standard or bantam (was supposed to be bantum but is about same size as silkie! Then there are the 2 little ladies. I was supposed to be getting a pair of 24 week old frizzle bantums and was looking forward to my curly girls as I had specified fluffy and straggly type! I arrived to find 2 tiny little girls with very smooth feathers appart from the fluffiest boots out. They were so cute and the 2 of them wouldnt leave each others side. Despite me specifying no orangy/red colours in my bantums one is a buff/ginger colour. My eldest son saw them and fell instntly in love with them so home they came. As I have become more confident with them I notice they have the tinyest little combs that are just turning from a very pale colour to getting a pinkish peach blush!
Cant decide if they might be a golden and a buff partridge bantums or frizzle pekin crosses! Ay ideas?

You can't post pictures until you have posted so many times, but

. It won't take long and then you will be able to post pics too.

Thanks for that it shouldnt take long I have so many questions!!! I dont know where to start. I thought I had researched everything - I have either forgotten it all in days or really knew nothing and need to accept you cant learn chickens from a book you learn chickens from keeping chickens!!

Yep when I started it was in the city when my son was about five. That was sixteen years ago. I had a book I found at the feedstore... paper back with lots of pictures. From that I pretty much thought I had most of what I needed to know to start out.

Now that I have joined this forum I find out how much I really Do Not Know.... its the same with all subjects though. I have had horses now 44 years. The more I learn the more I find out I am woefully ignorant in other areas.... But if your green you are growing if you are ripe you rot.... There has to be a happy middle in there somewhere....LOL
