    Well I was mostly worried about their ability to walk and balance and less worried about show quality birds. They seem to be getting around better now.

    Marans Thread - breed discussion & pictures are welcome!

    looking from some advice-- I bought some black copper maran eggs off ebay (probably my first mistake) and they are hatching today. Most of these have deformities in their toes. The first one that hatched has fused 2nd and third toes. The others seem to have a short (nearly missing) outter...

    Help.. set at wrong end!

    Its day 6.so while checking for growth I noticed 1 egg set with air sac down and vessels on other end. (in my defense the breeder marked it that way) Its had a great vessel structure and seems to be doing great. On day 6 should I flip it with fat side up or leave it as it is?

    lol, I think the sex link gene is a gene that allows feather sexing only on hatch day or the next day. after that you can't look at the feathers.

    awe! give us a peek;) oh and the bandaid trick works great for helping them get up on their feet. I had a cute splayed leg last hatch and 3 days later she was running around with the rest!

    Pennsylvania!! Unite!!

    So excited about raising this breed. They lay moderate to extra large sky blue eggs. I received 2 VERY large eggs in my order to incubate and I recently read someone with a 64g egg from one of their cream legbars. They are beautiful. From what I read they are friendly, easily handled and good...

    echoing the above warning! it looks like that heat lamp may not have a ceramic base where the bulb screws in. the ceramic ones don't get hot like the metal/plastic ones.

    just fyi as I've learned from experience. Each and every surface of everything in that room will be covered in a fine dust. you may want to put your treasures away while your babies are growing out. I just raised up some silkies and showgirls in the garage and everything was covered in dust...
