    Keeper of the hens

    This could turn into a nightmare, but i thought it'd be quite a good idea.

    Basically I thought it'd be nice to have a thread where people can post pics of their pets, themselves, places nearby where they live etc.

    I know i like posting pics of the chicks dotted around the forum, and it's nice to be able to look back on them which is much easier if they're all contained in one thread. Plus it's easier for people on dial-up to have one thread to avoid instead of innocently wandering into a different thread and finding it takes half an hour to load because some goon has posted a load of chick photos in there :P

    What does everyone think?

    Keeper of the hens

    I have gone photo crazy, apologies...Here are the chicks at 9 1/2 weeks old:

    Photobucket
    Here is Sunny sprawled across my History revision - it's a good excuse not to revise if a chick is laying on your work, right? ;)

    Daisy boy
    Here is Daisy-lou having a sunbathe - that boy is hilarious, he just melts into a heap as soon as the sun hits him! :D

    Midget
    Midget looking sleepy

    Sotty boy!
    Scotty boy leaving the kitchen

    Daisy n Milly
    Daisy keeping a close eye on Milly!

    Scotty..?
    Scotty soaking up the sun

    Sunbathing!
    Three happy peepers :)

    9 1/2 weeks old
    And finally all the chicks climbing together - they even climbed onto the top of the rabbit hutch roof, i have no idea why :P

    How To Post Pics!

    Try reading that, Ace, and then give it a go. I used Diane's verion of the instructions (sorry Wazza!) as i found them easier - they're about halfway down the page.

    I was worried about posting pics too, but after reading Diane's instructions it's easy. Give us a yell if you get stuck and i'll try to help (emphasis on the try!)

    Ace, make sure the "Format comment as:" is set to 'Html' and not 'Text' when you are adding your post. Does that make any sense whatsoever...? :P

    Ace, the beginning of the html should look like this: < a href =" http:

    Are you using photobucket? If you are just copy the link from HTML Code underneath your picture, paste it straight here, and it should work...?

    Thank you Kate - don't you think Sunny is such a poser? It's hard to get a pic where she isn't posing. Even the one where she's stood on the coop she's stood a little too perfect for it to be natural :P

    CC, i thought we already had a photo thread too. There's Wazza's PHOTO Album thread but that's about it. D'you remember the one Diane started (i think) and posted loads of animal pics in? Where has that got to? :confused:
