    Wrath's Marans

    Shadow...our Barred Rock was in the nest box directly above her. Moved her after dark last night onto Poppy x Solo eggs. She was anxious to get out this morning and when she came back went back into the nest box above, so I moved her back down to her eggs again and she settled down happily. I'll...

    Help hatchery mistake! French Black Marans?!?!

    Depending on the age... The one you posted looks like it's female. I have Black Coppers and BBS Silvers and my boys have very good temperaments which in my opinion seems to be a breed trait for Marans in general. Yes there are exceptions of course. My females typically start laying right around...

    Wrath's Marans

    Because I have a boat load of stuff to do, I negated all that hogwash and decided to do a head count of Marans instead for funsies. This doesn't include Black or Lil Black my suspect MMMs or OEs but it does include the 12 Kong x Solo (Gold x Silver Marans babies) or any I've sold which was 15...

    I noticed one of the 2 Blue Silvers with headspots yesterday was still there also. I'll get some real good pics here shortly of all of them with ages to document. The one Blue I did see, the spot was much more diluted like a beige color. Extremely interesting stuff I think for sure. Just wish I...

    This pullet is a first for me to see it this long. The placement of the headspot I think is the issue, as both males I've had were more on the top of the head so it grew in full copper there. With hers being next to the comb it may stay there. I'm really curious to see what happens.

    Separating Broody Hen & Chicks

    I would caution separating her from the flock unless there's no other option. Reintegration becomes that much harder as you already found out. Momma and babies are instantly integrated if she's kept within the flock.

    Separating Broody Hen & Chicks

    Do you have a temporary nest box you can attach to a dog crate like this? I set these up when I have not enough brooders under the poop boards. I wait til she comes off the nest for her daily, and either move the nest box or move the eggs. When she comes back I direct her where I want her to...

    Quality control showed up and noticed the scratch bucket was a little heavy. I don't think the lid would've snapped on without their help... And yep, blurry pics are back. That's a welcome change.

    Congrats...that's awesome. They're very pretty. Keep track of those eggs if you can, they may get darker still depending on how many layed. My fancy BCM's... That's a hoot !! 🤣 I started with hatchery also, my friend.
