    Can I put these chicks together like this?

    I have 7 silkies and 3 Japanese bantams that are about 2 weeks old. They seem to be lively, growing fast & healthy. I have a batch of 5 Easter eggers & 5 New Hampshire Reds coming on August 5th... Do you think the little head start the bantams got will be enough to mix them with the new...

    Well, I contacted McMurray Hatchery & sent her a link to all the photos I had of the approx. 12 wk old Marans. She said she had others look at the pictures also & the consensus was that they never saw more than 2 roosters in any picture. Not knowing which photos duplicated a common bird she...

    Cuckoo Marans- Can these all be roosters? PICTURES added

    I got 10 Cuckoo Marans from Ideal this spring & now that they have matured it looks like 8 out of 10 are all roosters! I just want to make sure I'm judging correctly. There are 2 (I think hens) who have always been rumpless... no tail feathers sticking up at all. All the rest have very erect...
