Nope. I have no poultry show experience and I can't get a good picture of him for myself. He's either moving around or coming up to look at the camera. He needs posing lessons from OC.

I've been trying to post a couple of pictures of him but I can't get it to work from either Photobucket or Postimage. I can e-mail them to someone if they want to post them. Attachments are only from a phone right?

You're too late for the show, too bad he is a nice looking boy, but hopefully we have another online show and you can enter him. I'll tell you this trying to get a picture with something for reference size is hard, we need to practice. Next time try using the PM to send your picture or email it to someone and they will post it for you.
Not sure but I always use attachments, I think even on the computer.

ya just skip photobucket or anything else like that and upload it directly here via the attachments box below, either from a phone or a computer.

but to enter a pic via a url like from photobucket or another website click on the box above with the mountains and enter the url inbetween the coding, then it will show up properly.

I wasn't going to enter him in the show. I was going to put the pictures in this post. I was having trouble uploading them to Photobucket and Postimage. The pictures are on my computer. There is no URL. How do I upload a picture? I couldn't find a tip on here that says how to do it.

this is from the regular post page, its the same either when replying to post or creating a new one. below the msg box is 2 tabs, one is attachments. click on the attachments tab.

on the attachments tab click add files, find your pics on your device, and then upload them.

I hope this helps!

Oh and another way to upload pics from a computer is to first find the pic or pics and highlight them, then simply drag them right into the msg box and they will automatically upload. the limit is ten pics per post.

Wow! This was much better than using Photobucket. Thanks. Here is Henry, my blue Ameraucana. When I take pictures using a flash, like the first picture, sometimes it washes out his color, and sometimes it looks a bit brown.

The angle of this picture makes his chest look quite broad. He actually has a medium sized chest, in my opinion.
If I try to take a picture from his level, he keeps walking over to me. I can see it would be hard to judge them based only on a picture.

Does anyone have a picture of a blue Ameraucana that has medium or dark lacing that they can post so we can compare them?
