Silkie thread!

Professional pictures from the Northeastern Poultry congress! Photographer David McIntyre was there doing professional photographs. He did 2 of them for free because he said my birds were the most well behaved and he wished all of the birds were just like them

Those are some REALLY, REALLY nice pictures! These two are my favorites. The colors are unreal! Makes your hen look like a self-blue. lol Beautiful.
I wish I would have known there was a photographer at the show. I would have gone and asked questions. lol

What was the guy charging, btw? Did he do all digital or actual prints also?

Toulouse and Nori were free, Digital prints for Ice were $5, and to have a print out he charged $10. It was very reasonable.

VERY reasonable prices I'm surprised! I've sold my pictures for much more than that and they're not as good in quality as these shots are. And I just do it as a hobby.

I hope this photographer will be there next year too so I can get my chickies photographed. lol

Thanks so much!!
The trick will be getting them to use any nest box!
I've been wondering if duck eggs would hatch under a silkie as the incubator requires that you mist them.

My friend gave me two duck eggs for my broody last Saturday. Seems that is all she can handle. I candled them and one is veining and one is a dud. My friend has the other 4 and one of hers is a dud too. Due to hatch around Valentine's day

I do have her in a small rectangular basket in this corner now. I think she needs some artwork so she doesn't have to stare at a blank wall. I have 2 baskets and the rest of the girls like laying their eggs with Ms. Broody.
