    Breeding Birchen marans

    So she would definitely be a pure silver birchen maran? She was a purchased chick from greenfire farms, so also not sure how well that site is.

    Breeding Birchen marans

    He’s my only rooster so I only collect her dark eggs, the other hens I have are leghorns so I’m definitely just hatching the maran eggs. I’ve been hatching her eggs for about 3 months

    Breeding Blue Birchen Marans

    I have a blue birchen rooster and a blue birchen hen. I bred them together and hatched about 40 eggs altogether. Out of all those eggs the chicks are all black birchens except for one, just ONE splash. I'll keep trying and also incorporate the splash and black birchens when they start laying.

    What rooster breed is this?

    Just got this rooster for free the owner said it was a salmon faverolle, which obviously it’s not. So can anyone tell me what kind of rooster it is? Maybe a welsummer, or black copper maran?
