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?

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

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? ;)

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 looking sleepy

Scotty boy leaving the kitchen

Daisy keeping a close eye on Milly!

Scotty soaking up the sun

Three happy peepers

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

Good luck i gotta go now, but somebody else can probably help you

- CommentAuthorRed
- CommentTimeMay 31st, 2008 6:12pm (May 31st 2008)
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?

Now that they're getting the right dosage they seem to be improving. Molly isn't making a noise anymore (hopefully caught it in time) and Patrick is a little quieter today.

I was going through some pics from when we went to Cannon Hall the other week (when we saw the frizzles) and i found some cute ones to share:

This rabbit only looked young, and was absolutely gorgeous. I wanted to bring her home but thought Domino might object

And here is mum chillin' with her babies! I love the way she has one leg over them

They had some slightly older piglets who were running about and would rush over for strokes too, very cute.

Here are some pics that my dad was supposed to post in the blog ages ago (he's been promising to do it for the last few years, but can't remember whether he did or not :D). I'll post them here, and then add them to the blog too.

These were taken a few weeks after we got Milly. Unbeknown to us, little Milly used to fly over the neighbour's house (they live two doors down) where they would feed her oatmeal and other treats. To get there she had to cross two gardens, one with a cat and one with a dog!!

We had no idea she used to do this, and so when our neighbours showed us these pics we almost died of shock! Here she is as a baby:

Guess who!

Look how small she was! And to think they sold her to us as a point of lay pullet :-\

A very round baby Milly :D

I'd be a bit wary of that end, too...

They're such fantastic pics, thank you Mary & Rob for sharing them and letting us post them on the site!
