The only problem with posting chicks is they have to be day olds, or there are different shipping laws and procedures, and it can be expensive.

Not to mention that you (the sender) has to be NPIP to ship live birds to my knowledge

I've hatched out two separate shipments of Monkeyingaroundfarms BCM eggs and every egg was very dark. I now have some of the most gorgeous BCM chicks--my oldest are now almost 3 months old. I also hatched some of his Blue Marans, EEs and Frizzle eggs and the chicks are healthy, beautiful and thriving. I purchased 24 eggs from him last time and 19 of them hatched--6 of the eggs were Blue Marans and all 6 of them hatched. I've had the some of the best hatch ratios with his eggs. He takes great care in packing/shipping--some of the best packaged eggs I've ever received--and I would highly recommend bidding on/purchasing any of his eggs. Pics of my BCM, Blue Marans, Frizzle and EE babies will be coming in the near future. I have started organizing pictures for my BYC page of my adult birds, but will take pics of all my chicks as soon as my life slows down a little

Oh, I hope I have as good a hatch rate as you! I had an excellent hatch rate with atlchick's EE eggs, and with little_grey_bantam's eggs too. Fantastic shipping. I liked the way moneyingaroundfarms packaged his eggs too, and I am so excited to put them in the bator tomorrow. Of your blues that you set from him, did you get any Blue Coppers? He mentioned that I could get that color, so I looked it up on Bev Davis' website and WOW! They are beautiful! Blue Marans are just one of the colors of Marans that I've been wanting to get. I'm excited about this hatch, I just love Marans.

Up for auction is 6+ eggs from my standard flock. The rooster is my Silver Cuckoo Marans, and my hens are BA, SLW, Amber SL, and 2 Welsummer/Ameracauna mixes (pretty, Wellie colors but green legs!) We have wonderful fertility on these eggs and have hatched out some beautiful chicks so far. Yellow, black, and black with beautiful white edging to the feathers that isn't quite lacing, but is somehow just as beautiful. We actually think some of these chicks will hatch out sexlinked and we are currently testing that theory. Chicks are hearty, healthy, and would make GREAT layers for your flock. My girls lay me anywhere from 6 to 9 eggs daily, so these babies would be great layers too. Here are a few pics:

Most of the flock:

My younger DD holding our roo when he was still young, maybe about 7 or 8 months old. He is absolutely GORGEOUS with such a beautiful tail and the calmest, most wonderful personality.

Starting bid $2.00. Shipping $7.50.

Edited cause I thought I added in the last picture, but forgot. Duh! (It's late and I'm tired!!!)

Thank you so much for the nice comments!!!! If you look at this link, https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=340981 you will see a picture of a box that I shipped. The PO, it looks like kicked it in. there were no borken eggs! Enjoy the Pekin eggs I just sent. I have 29 eggs in the box headed out to you this morning. Again, Thank you for the comments as I take pride in my packng and the eggs I sell. I am working on getting even darker eggs by hatching the darking ones I do not sell and adding them to the flock that is producing the darkest ones now.

Yes, I did get at least two Blue Coppers, maybe more, but there is one with quite a bit of copper and it is absolutely spectacular. All of them are beautiful and I think all of them are booted, too.

I also hatched two batches of eggs from ILOVEFRIZZLES of BCM and Blue/Splash Marans and all but a few hatched from both shipments combined. I just hatched silkies and cochins from her, too, and all but one egg hatched of those. She has beautiful birds, too, and my marans chicks (splash, blue and bcm), silkie and cochin chicks are gorgeous, too.
