 This was a fun shoot. I have some really good out-takes too - Hazel Grace (the large Buff Orpington)is the sweetest hen ever and has SO much personality. She didn't think much of the adolescent chick (we think it's a rooster) and she started pecking at him, so I didn't get time to adjust my lighting as I would have liked to.
