choose photo

use something such as webresizer or photoshop to make it just under 2 meg
save it with an easy to find name(guilty as charged)

then in a post

click attach file
find reduced size image and open it, upload it

it should be there in a few seconds, it will look like loads of code stuff

try preview, if the snap is there finish the post and click submit

Thanks, I'll give it a go!
This is our main LaFleche cock for this year. He was too busy for photoshoots and wouldn't stand up!

I've seen the job from both sides, - sending stuff and delivering. Any delivery driver worth his salt can destroy ANYTHING!!

He's not! He's a complete thug! They are supposed to be one of the best table birds going. At about 10 months and around 4kg he's still growing! He takes good care of his ladies though! He's really imposing when he stands properly.
The Crevecouer boys are smaaller but still a good size. They do grow more slowly though.

you are braver than me - I don't like a mean cockerel. I know they are better for the flock etc, protective and some even say more fertile, but I used to choose my cockerel on the basis of being able to enter the hen run without being attacked! He is a good looking chap you have there.

It's interesting how one likes a particular breed. My favourite was French blue ( splash and black) marans. Beautiful dark eggs, which was what I was after,

i have been ambushed by a mule, blinded by a beetle, dragged around a pig pen by a sheep, had assorted control and restraint and/or escape from moments with dangeroos animals(fierce beasts of the canine type are interesting)
the killerkerry was a little different to most moos

rapist rooster was in a different class to anything before or since

i have his mummified paws in the shed, he could have had mine

a protective rooster is an asset, one that rapes neighbours, murders "rivals" and attacks people has to go
be careful how that is planned, next time i use a gun

He's never gone for me, but the kids tend to stay away from that part of the farm! He is very much top of the crowing order.
When I was a kid, a chap down the road had some huge birds that had been chemically castrated. I'l tell you about it sometime.
