    Marans Thread - breed discussion & pictures are welcome!

    I have my opinion, taste, breeding program and different breeding styles but still achieve the correct color pattern. I believe i have read both but tend to lean more towards one. If you want to get picky about it look at the french standard.

    Very well put i think the dark cock will be a wheaten based on the neck color is to light. The Black Copper Marans should be a dark wine red.

    The worst thing will be breast color for sure the leg color is something that need to be fixed eventually but color patterns typical take longer to correct once it was messed with. i would cull out the wrong breast color and leave the lighter leg color for now then next year or later in the year...

    I think you just have some darker wheaten marans they throw different colors from lighter to darker but the one with a red chest needs to be culled if your breeding wheaten marans as it doesn't conform to the wheaten standard. let the black chested cockerel grow out to get all his primary...

    You can also tell they are cuckoo by the light barring color in the wings as well. It also has some rose combs in there not sure the marans should only be straight combs. Im not seeing as much feathering on the legs as i would like.

    I have a sick Turkey and I need help PLEASE

    I truthfully don't think it is the bird flu. If it was the bird flu then all your birds would be dead or dying more than likely. It isn't uncommon for turkeys and or ducks to have water coming out of there mouth or throwing up especially if you are picking them up or if you do not have water to...
