    Butchered my first chicken today, and it stinks?

    What I found is that because they lay down so much their skin on their chest gets a lot of feces stuck to it. It smells awful. My husband also commented on the first of the three Cornish I raised for butcher this season that the skin tasted funky even though I scrubbed and picked as much dry...

    The big rooster did yes. One of our eggs from our hens. We only had 3 laying. The Maran was our neighbor’s egg. We had no more Easter egger eggs after our Easter eggers were attacked by coons a few years ago. We have the silver laced Wyandotte, the one I though was an auricana which now I’m...

    This is one of my assumably French black marans. The egg in front was the Rooster’s egg.

    Rights and she’s never laid blue eggs. Her eggs are a light tannish pink.

    He came from a light pink egg but we will see! That would be nice having more Easter wagers.

    That is normal humidity on a dry run here for me in Oregon other than getting down to 29% on hot days. Otherwise it’s up at 58% or so using manufacturers requests of filling the tray. I’m not about to spend another $50 on eggs so we will have to wait for my own lol

    Bresse Chickens

    Popular opinion was a lengthy thread on hatch rates with bresse and that because their eggs are larger they need to be dry incubated to reduce the moisture to succeed. Not my experience!

    We purchased from Wilco as Auricana. The Rooster was given to us as one as well and matched the Araucana pictures online. But who really knows?

    So, an update! First of all- I think those who said our Aricauna hen was probably the mother are right. His face DOES look a lot like hers. Second, he started crowing the next day lol! So there is no doubt! Ive named him 'Gaston' since his papa is 'Handsome' and we live in Gaston, Oregon haha!

    Have any of you incubated successfully your eggs? Reading the popular opinion just about killed all the chicks I hatched from eggs on auction recently :(

    What totally black chicken comes from a dark large red egg?

    I can not find any black marans though. Actually I just found French black marans lol! I couldn’t find them for the life of me before!

    There is a picture of one of the eggs he came from here. Not the dark egg but one of the pink ones. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/what-totally-black-chicken-comes-from-a-dark-large-red-egg.1398726/

    Im not sure if the rooster was full. He was given to us as an adult.

    Oh I thought so! He is very dominant and runs around like he owns the place! I was hoping for another rooster because Handsome is getting ready to go into retirement. He’s the first one in the coop at night!
