    I agree love Marans, you have some pretty girls. I live in Nevada near Death Valley and these birds are really good foragers and can handle heat. I put a baby pool out for them to wade in they like it lol

    help me choose a breed!!

    The run is loaded with flies

    I've had horses most my life and have had to deal with flies.
