Ha ha I pressed 'go' far too soon!  Still trying to post the pic.  ::)

There' that's better.  Please note the dust-bathing spot by the fence, the trampled marigolds and the poo on the ramp.  :tongue2:  Also notice the relaxed stance of the little prima donnas as they lounge around and ask for another treat to be popped in their spoiled little beaks.  :wub:

Oh dear!  I can see it... I wonder what I've done wrong.  :unsure:  

I will go back and edit the post again and see if I can make it appear.

Right, I've edited it so if you still can't see it I will have to go back to the drawing board.  Can anyone see my pretty girls or are they really just a figment of my imagination?  :blink:

Oh Beano can you still not see it?  :(  I've followed the instructions on how to post a picture in a thread, and it looks to me as if it's appearing where it should be.  I think I need the help of a moderator to correct my image code...

Well, I've tried all sorts to no avail. I've even tried pasting the URL into my brower, I get to the home page & it tells me I have to be a registered user to view images.

If no one else can sort it, I'll PM you my email addy & I'll try & post it for you.

Aha!  That explains it!  I thought I could have the photo hosted by another poultry site instead of photobucket, but apparently the other site doesn't allow 'outsiders' to view photos on their URL.  That's why I can see it but nobody else can. 

D'OH!  (DD's signature made me say that)

Oh thank goodness for that.  Now I can go and get some sleep!  It's very dark on this side of the world and the chickens have been asleep for hours! 

Good night everyone. :closedeyes:
