    Autosexing Olive Eggers

    I'm new to genetics, can anyone tell me if you can get autosexing chicks from Silver Crested Cream Legbars and Cuckoo Marans? I know if you put a black rooster with the Cuckoo's, they'll be autosexing, and Cream Legbars are autosexing by themselves, or you can put Bielefelders and CLs together...

Prefer Merrick's vaccinated but not necessary. Eggs MUST be a 4 or...

    Wheaton/Splash Marans cross

    Proper way to say Marans?

    This may not be a thing, but I though I would ask. Is it said "mare-ans" or "ma-rans"? Do you say the S? Do you do the French thing and roll the R?
