Doubt they are crossed with Marans. More likely hatchery birds. I would just breed what you have. Easier than a trip to KS and better odds than shipping eggs.
lots of things were tosses around. but I never heard an answer. he called a state vet and he didn't know either. they quit the FF and worming......but they still don't know. sorry. try some vitamins that was tossed out there too.
OH NO! If my roo was doing his thing I could hook you up. If you don't find any by Jan check with me and see if he is back in the swing.... or I have a new roo LOL. I will have some solid rocks in the spring too. I have a Blue and Black from Brookhaven's birds and I am going to put them over...
Thanks! I just was hoping to tell a little at hatch. I can with my BR from my GSBR roo. Most of what I hatched just seem to have a small spot. I can wait to know for sure I just needed some more to work with. If they are all pullets I have a roo already and if there are some roos I will...
So far I have 11 GSBR chicks out of 3.5 doz eggs set. I will leave the other eggs in for a few more days since my hatcher was running cool. I have more eggs going into lockdown tomorrow so not a problem leaving them in. I only saw 1 that looked like a roo for sure. Do the head spots hold...
Mine started hatching too. I got 4 doz eggs from Frank Reese and 25-26 made it to lockdown. 3 where out yesterday and 6-8 had pipped when I left. My hatcher was running a little cool so they are a little behind. I will update when they all get hatched. SUPER EXCITED! I have one lone GSBR...
I candled my eggs today from Frank Reese at day 8 and it looks like most are developing.... I will know more in another week but YEAH! I was concerned since they had a little bit of a rough ride getting her.
Got my eggs! 2 were broken but i got plenty in good shape. He packed mine in styrofoam shippers and an egg carton. The one doz in the carton was not even wrapped but faired just fine. The ones in styrofoam were broken.
