Is there a way to decrease the diameter of particles? I know how to use the particle system, but now I am looking for a very fine fur for a baby chick that I am modeling.
Thanks!

When making the material for the fur, open the [strands] dialogue box in the [links and pipeline] tab. You’ll be able to set particle strand beginning and end width and how it interpolates the shape in between.
To fake softer fur, add a texture to the fur material, set mapping to ‘strand’ and make the texture a gradient 'blend) Adjust the gradient for whatever colours and alpha values you want. Far left of the gradient is the base, far right of the gradient is the tip.
