Thanks for replying, yes I am simular to yourself. So will post any updates. I plan when they start laying or a month or so after. I have 7 point of lay. So im impatiently waiting for my first egg! I just dont want to do trial and error as its 3 weeks each time so want to get it right first...

Hello,
I am a new member here but have been reading a lot of information over the last year. I have 7, 17 week old Black French Copper Maran Hens and 1 Cockerel.

Last August (2025) i puchased some BFCM hatching eggs...
