I'm just now getting ready to post pictures. I took a bunch today of The O's, Hagrid, Rumples, and Bluebell. I didn't get time to take pictures of the younger Winston/Clementine and Winston/Minerva chicks. I will do that tomorrow.

But....just to let Jeremy and Beth know ...... We have one

and 4 more pips so far !!

I took massive quantities of photos of The O's, Hagrid, Rumples, and Bluebell today. I avoided taking photos of Winston and Clementine...they are both molting and look pretty ragged. Winston has 2 lone tail feathers flapping in the breeze - he has been temporarily named "Chief Two Feathers"

Anyhow, I apologize in advance for the globs of pictures, but I can't help myself. In these photos, The O's are 3-1/2 months old, Hagrid is a few days short of 3 months old, Rumples is 2-1/2 months old, and Bluebell is 2 months old.

Bluebell is getting prettier and prettier. I'm staggered by the massive quantity of fluff The O's already have at such a young age.

Olympia and Hagrid (Olympia is in the front) - hard to tell where one ends and the other begins .... looks like a 2-headed chicken to me

They look really great. Love the O's. Blue bell is fantastic looking. Her color is a very desirable color.
Glad you took so many. I don't get tired of Orp pics

WooooHooooo, I love those pictures! Those are lovely lovely birds!

I took a bunch of pictures. They are not nearly as good as yours are. The run they are in is totally shaded and it always looks dark in the pictures (with my cheapy camera). I will upload a few anyway.

This is the same one .... they were comparing chest sizes.

My favorite black .....

I will upload more pictures later. I do not have DSL (not available in the country here), and it is taking forever to upload. It will be quicker at midnight, when there is less activity, I think.

Hello world,

I just woke up from a much needed long nap - I was at work at 5 am this morning!

Joy, how are my babies?

Bluebell is simply stunning. Her lacing in that first picture takes my breath away, it's already so perfect and she's so young! I love how typey The O's are already too, look at all that cushion.
