We took a little trip to Marwell Zoo the other week which meant I finally got to take some decent photos of some of my models! A lot of the models for this show left the workshop while I was working from home so I missed seeing them go out for display.

This one is an American Kestrel. Truly beautiful birds and I loved making this one. :)

Damn near perfect head on Sumac, my keeper from the young batch of Orloffs! Look at that heavy, well feathered brow and those almond shaped eyes. The stout, curved beak, the flat comb, the distinct cleft down the middle parting for the comb...he's magnificent!

He's a Mahogany and may well grow to be the best Mahogany Orloff in the USA! (There are few Mahoganies and most are poor quality.)

Bearded Chicken Breeds-Russian Orloff

The Russian Orloff chicken is tall, with a very thickly feathered neck, Yellow legs, minuscule wattles and a cushion/strawberry comb. The major characteristics of the breed are its round head with full muffs and beard, topped off by a small comb. The beak should be short and hooked and the eyelids heavy. They lay a light brown egg, but are known to be poor layers. They were developed for the table. Although a slow-growing breed, Orloffs are very hardy and resistant to harsh winter weather.

Here’s Darlene doin a sick trick

So, I ended up with a chance to go back and grab the rest of the OGO pigeons from where the first 7 were rescued. There were 13 more, which means we have 20 total now.

I’m going to have to rehome some of them, because 20 is way too many, like 2x as many as I feel comfortable with in the pea pen (I think this would be a great pen for them if they were the only denizens, but not shared space), but I had to get them out of where they were because their conditions were deplorable and they had no flight space at all.

We’re probably going to try to move out almost all the reds, and the black banded ones, which would take us to 8. I’m waiting to hear back with a photo of the 2 hens that had pair bonded because I will keep them regardless of color, as they won’t produce babies, so 10 max which will be much more manageable.

PS: if you are or know anyone in or around SE michigan that keeps pigeons in responsible conditions that might be interested in a few old german owls, drop me a line!
