[Crazy For Chicks]

Hi! I bought some Mystic Maran chicks but I’m thinking they were mislabeled. They came from Townline Hatchery and they show pictures of mostly black adults. I don’t think these white babies are going to turn that black Any ideas?

Those look like Light Brahmas.

Well I’ll be a monkeys uncle! They sure do I guess I’m the proud owner of some Brahma chickens Thanks for your help!!

Reminds me of a light brahma i had too. But her feet were bright yellow. Your chicks feet look dark. Heck, maybe they come in both colors. I dont know much! Lol

This is my Mystic Marans at a few days old:

Here she is at about 10/11 weeks:

She is all black now though there's a really pretty greenish metallic sort of tint in the sunlight.

She's beautiful! I wonder how dark her eggs will be. Where did you get her?

Thank you! She's quite the big personality too -- always needs to be involved in whatever is going on. Got her from my cousin's feed store and she's about 17 weeks now looking like she may start laying in the next couple of weeks. I'll post an egg when she does!
