Thank you!

Those two are in that really gangly age right now and don't look so hot. She (the porcelain) is from a CatDance egg. All the "teenagers" in the backgrounds with my lavender boy are CatDance as is he. I think they are all beautiful, but I am their Mother and am a wee bit partial.

Here is my other lavender. I am hoping female. She is just pet quality - so ugly she's cute. This is the day I got her as a companion to my porcelain baby (a single hatched out of two dozen shipped eggs - I just couldn't let her grow up alone) her face says it all (the lavender is in the front or on the left in each shot):



What is this ugly thing and why is she stepping on MY sock Momma!!


I can't believe you pooped and I stepped in it! Your are such a dork!!!

Well MAYBE this will be OK after all......

Yeah this is going to work.

This is the best shot you can get MOM? I look like I am in jail or something!!! Geez!!!

And you cut off my head??? REALLLLLLYYYYY!!!!!!

Thank you!

I have a very vivid imagination.

Hope you'll post pictures soon! I hatch out several self-blue and black splits today. So fun!!

My guy still has a few pin feathers left in his crest. It's OK but not anything like his sisters (hatch mates).

Are the two in the middle blue-cream? very pretty! I'll try to get some pictures of my babies today. I have several self-blue chicks right now.

No, that's all the same guy, my little (big) lavender cockeral. It's just the lighting. He almost looks like a lavender Columbian in that second picture. Blue cream??? That sounds really yummy. Is anyone breeding those? I would love to see that!!!

Oh duh! That's what they are calling porcelain now. I do have one (did have two but lost one) but her coloring is quite a bit different than his.

Funny what photos do, isn't it? He's looking great. Blue-cream or self-cream are becoming the preferred name for "porcelain" since porcelain cannot correctly be used for that color. Hope that's clear....

Blue-cream is the name I hear the most often now for people who show them, but others include opal and pearl. Since it's a project color, it becomes difficult to get agreement on a name. I'm hearing that judges are preferring blue-cream.
