Silkie thread!

[TurtlePowerTrav]

Well, I am back from Hawaii. The Silkies and the LF orphan in the brooder smelled. I moved them out to the tractor today. And one of the cockerels tried to crow this morning. I will try and get some new pics tomorrow, I will be outside building on the pallet coops for the LF and the Silkies.

I live in Hawaii. What island you go to? Did you get to see all the feral chickens?

Yes, we did. We saw a lot more on Maui in 2011. We were on Oahu this time. I will post a pic on here when I download them from my camera.

How much does a quality stabilizer typically cost?

1. Wonder what the equivalent would be for Nikon? I'll certainly need to do a search. The incubator and eggs are already an "early B'day gift". Maybe he will forget by March, and I can ask for this for my b'day

Quote: $$$$$$$$$ Lots. Although most cameras now have image stabilizer built into it. My Sony a350 has it.

ETA: My Sony is an a550, not a 350. Oops

Beautiful pictures

They look so professional. I also like your french / english's name. How did you come with it?

Thank you!

Even adult silkie skulls are extra soft? Or just the chicks?

Thanks for the input! the other BBS ones are are definite grey-blue. I can't believe how different it would hatch out! That's good to know, thanks!

Yes, even adults thought their crest offers some protection.

does this work with silkies or just LF?

Doesn't work with silkies.

I used my hand they worked better , I can move it around easier.

Me too!
