Lousy camera = lousy pictures

But something's better than nothing--maybe...

From this on 6/13...
Lousy camera = lousy pictures - Poultry

To now...and the mixes are!
Front is Red roo and Leghorn hen; back is EE hen and EE roo. (Both parents had tails and not much "facial" hair!)
Lousy camera = lousy pictures - Poultry
Leghorn hen and EEer roo result. Both white with gray/green legs.

5 out of 10. From left around the circle we have:
Leghorn hen with Red roo, Leghorn hen with EE roo (from pic 2), EE hen with EE roo ("she's" much prettier IRL--brown "speckled" feathering but gray like mom if you pull them back), EE hen and EE roo (from pic 1), Copper Maran hen (maybe) with EE roo, same hen with same roo but cheep has no tail!

Somewhere I have pictures of the parents...

There are actually 3 in the picture. I didn't make them but the 2 on the ends are PVC (large) cut in half then screwed to a wooden base (round section hollowed out to accept the pipe). The center one that's covered is also homemade but I'm not sure how. I'll try to get Bill, the guy who made them, to post some directions.

Nice looking birds. What is it you have the chicks in, in the first picture?
