To show the chookies off better, here are some that show true colours under natural lighting conditions! (Also a fun excuse to mess around with macro.) These guys are SO hard to get a focus on though, they MOVE every other nanosecond!!!

Ladies first... here's the little black girl 5 months old.



Okay so this is me having a bit of a photographic joke - this is a colour picture black and white. It IS a colour photograph though! ;-) She is looking over her back here.

Closer picture of her feet... this is probably the one area I will need to do a bit of work in breeding. She has virtually no middle to feathering (few tufts on the side of the middle toe) and the seperation between the 4th and 5th toe isn't great. His is much the same though he has slighly less seperation between the toes but more middle toe feathering.

Cedar (wyandotte roo) was less cooperative about staying on my table and I didn't want him hopping down while they're still in quarantine so I'll try again later.
