    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    I’m not sure if you can see better with these photos but I got some more today. Didn’t get a good shot of her other side she’s in motion, my phone died before I could get a better one. Let me know if these shots are better. If not I’ll bring her inside and try to get shots from there, though I’m...

    Hmm, this one looks square to me but again I’m only just trying to train my eye. Maybe it’s the high tail, it certainly makes her back look shorter.

    Kebonnix 12-egg Incubator Thread

    Ambient temperature may be the issue. My house does not hold a steady temp. I moved it to a warmer area for the second batch. I keep a blanket or sweater wrapped around it but am careful not to cover the vents. I think I have the same thermometer you are using. I’ve ordered another thermometer...
