Photos were taken of some of my mcmurray neids today. These are just the males (I think). Of the 15 I ordered (lost 2), 5/13.
I think 8/13 females. I should have tagged for chick color to learn about sexing them but didn't get a chance to while they had "chick down"

Purchased 15 LCN chicks from McMurray, watched the website like a crazy person till they restocked. I've had them like a week. Will upload photos later. So far 2 have died due to unknown issues (potential crop clearing problem). Came with vaccinations against cocci and maerks. Down to 13...

I don't want to pay $30 per chick from the major breeder though.
I've been raising black copper marans since 2014. I figured I would try to see if there was an interest here. Eggs pictured show ones I'm most proud of. The male pictured is the roo I use to breed. You can check out my facebook page marysmarans for more information and just general info about...
missed you guys. Chooksman so thankful to see you back! I think you have no idea how much you have helped us all understand the breed in a holistic way. USA marans scene is kinda misinformed eh. I've been away from the thread for awhile myself, having lost my best friend in my profile pic, truly...
