Thank you for the info. Those big beautiful combs seemed prone to frostbite and more adapted to hot weather (which we do not get much of here in upstate NY). That egg color would be worth trying it.

Good question. Leghorns do survive around here. I have one that I'm about to keep through winter and if she does well and I find some space, I'll work on getting more breeds in Spring.

I would like them but worry about their hardiness.

Thank you!

Also, I'm in NY state. The reviews say these are not cold hardy birds. Anyone have contrary evidence?

I'm not sure what my choices are. Partridge is what I'm most familiar with. My favorite feathering is splash or buff, but I don't have a huge preference when it comes to these. I'll be doing more research tonight.

Now I'm searching for hatching eggs. Any resources you can give me? I'm not sure what I can budget. Thanks!

Help? I hatched 5 black copper marans eggs. This guy is 4 weeks old. Is this "carnation" comb? Does that imply some penedesenca genetics or is that too simple? His crown has inspired me to possibly get some Penedesencas in the future. Thanks!
