I got "copper Maran" chicks from TSC. They are looking a bit blue to me... wondering which of the Marans y'all think these cuties are. (the two brown/yellow chicks are different breed altogether)
Hey y'all! I wound up with one chicken from this batch of eggs, which is a buff/black. Pic attached. Feet look weird because this was pulled out of a group photo.
Black, blue, and lav have darker legs.
I would love to see pictures!! When you say second gen, does that mean you're breeding the first gen babies. If so, who are they breeding with and what color are their eggs?
Hi, I have a broody hen in a mixed orpington pen and curiosity.
This is the first year we have had any roosters, so this is the first time they could hatch chicks! The babies will either be used for meat or kept for eggs - so the coloring is not especially important to us. We are very excited...

Hi, I have a mauve roo and hens in these colors: mauve, splash, chocolate cuckoo, chocolate. Hoping to get a couple more, including a black one. If I keep the roo and let them do their thing, what color baby chicks would they produce?
