    BCM rooster singing the egg song

    I thought it would be fun to share this video of my rooster, Odin, singing back and forth with my Wyandotte hen as she laid her egg (you can hear her a little bit, too).

    Is this a black copper Maran?

    I was sold this little as a baby. Literally just today I noticed she was just now starting to get a little red on her face. Comb is still small and black. Feathered legs.

    Update on mystery chicks breed? Gender?

    I have some strong ideas on breed and gender but I wanted to see what you all thought about it. Pretty sure I’ve got a barred rock, White Cochin, golden laced wyandotte, black copper marans, and a mystery brown chick. They are all supposed to be rare or brown egg layers and they came from Murry...

    What is going on with this BC Maran?

    This is a 7 week old BC Maran. My question is what is going on with it’s feathers? It is hard to photograph but they almost look frizzled. The shaft is extremely fine, the feathers curl and seem fuzzy. Has anyone had a bird like this? Does this go away with maturity?

    Marans With Featherless Legs?

    Hello! I am VERY interested in getting Black Copper Marans in a few years (Those EGGS!), but I strongly dislike feathered legs (No offense, but I like my chicken legs sleek lol). Are Marans without feathered legs bred often? Would they be difficult to obtain via hatching eggs or from a breeder...

    I had chickens when I was 10 or 11, typical feed store brown layers we got as pullets and 2 chicks that were all black and lovely but we had no idea what the breed was. Unfortunately a racoon took out the whole flock one day and I moved on to bees. I've used BYC for information since I began...
