    Birchen Marans Thread

    I don't think it's you,all my birchen eggs seem to be very hard to hatch. My best luck has been under a hen because she just knows when to help. I have about a 35 percent hatch rate and the Hens are much greater. It seems like I end up helping several each time I incubate. I even contracted out...

    Birchen Marans Thread

    My blue birchen cockerels would show some sign of birchen at 6-8 weeks. I had to look very close but it was there. The pullets sometimes took over 6 months to show some of the markings. After the first adult molt things settled in as they should be. The first chick,dark one, looks like a very...

    Black, Blue and Splash (BBS) Marans discussion thread

    Yea,it's hard to figure. I just go by the s o p for black copper,color is different but I think body type and so on will be close. It's all I have to go by for now. I think combs,eye color,tail angle,most things are going to be about the same.
