Mum, the grey hen, is half maran, half bantam.
Her son and daughter have some Maran genes but look more bantamish.
Ruffles, the mum, is 7 years old at the end of this year!
The two eldest eldest here are a Maran. she's 9 She's the last proper Maran and she's the boss of her tribe, but don't tell the rooster, Cillin...and a bantam who is also 9 and she's the boss of her tribe now. She had a lovely partner and they were together for 7 years but unfortunately he died last year.
Thanks for your comments.
