Guide Review - Photography Prop Set of 3 Fake Baby Chicks

This set of 3 fake baby chicks are super realistic with the feet and eyes being the weakest points of the props. The three different poses adds a nice variety to images and also allows a lot of flexibility when using just one chick in a photograph. With concerns from animal rights groups and Salmonella outbreaks, these fake baby chicks are are good alternative to live animals.
