Omlet Staff james Posted November 18, 2009 Omlet Staff Share Posted November 18, 2009 Hi, We are trying to finish off our chicken breeds section of the website: http://www.omlet.co.uk/breeds/breeds.php?breed_type=Chickens . However, we are short of a few photographs of some of the breeds. We are missing: Cream Legbar Delaware - this is really rare Gold Legbar Rhodebar Speckledy Sultan - This is quite rare. Welbar Does anyone have any of these chickens which you could photograph for us. We would be happy to reward the photographer for each photograph used with a £10 good egg scheme voucher and also make your chicken famous! The photographs would have to be taken on a clean background (like a sheet) so that we can chicken can be cut-out. If you think that you might be able to help, please could you email james@omlet.co.uk. Thanks, James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Well I've got a speckledy and a cream legbar but I think all you'd see of mine is a blur of feathers as they legged it for freedom - not the tamest of birds my legbar!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I'm not quite sure what Poppy (on the right) is . If you reckon she's a Speckeldy, I'm happy to have a go a photographing her! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I'll have a go at doing photos of my 2 lebars but getting a gold Legbar to stand still is going to be fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 ANH, she looks like my Speckledy if it helps! BeckyBoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 ANH I also have a speckledy that looks exactly like that (but rather shabbier ). I also have one that looks just like a maran complete with feathery feet, but I think she is the exception Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 After a little footbath and a good shake to get rid of all that dustbathing dust and Hemcore (all over the kitchen ), Poppy was ready for her first photoshoot ...... I'll email it to you, James. Hope it's what you're looking for . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 ANH very smart but one question how did you get her to stand still long enough to take the photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 My son is just out of shot and kept putting her back in place. I was lying on the floor with the camera . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 You definitely need two pairs of hands . (I never thought I'd be using an old plastic mattress protector for photographing chickens .) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
