    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    I figured as much, I have so so much to learn. But I am all in on breeding the best quality birds I can. I have an unexplainable urge to win a show with a bird I bred.

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    I have thought about breeding him back to some nice black copper hens just to see what he’d throw, but I don’t want to get myself in trouble with passing down that comb. I really would like to get my birds in the show halls one day. The comb may be really easy to fix, i’m just not sure on what...

    What color of silkies will these grow up to be?

    The only way I could tell you for sure is if they come from birds in color separated pens. The dark one looks like a chocolate though, the others could be very smutty buffs (lots of black leakage). I am not a silkie expert though, this is just my best guess.

    What breed is this?

    I'd say ameraucana cross, I'd also say that the pea comb and small muffs would indicate that she probably inherited a blue egg gene too. That's not guaranteed though

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    I won’t be breeding with the cockerel, I know he has big color and comb issues. Just looking for a good example of Marans type in my flock to compare to

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    Thoughts on the type of this Blue Copper cockerel - he's just a little over 5 months old (23 weeks). Also, any thoughts on this really young Black Copper pullet(10 weeks), and this Splash Pullet (23 weeks). Really trying to get a grasp on what type I should be looking for with the breed.

    How is the Type on this Blue Copper Marans?

    I had 4 other blue cockerels, but I culled them all for yellow feet. He’s the only one that somewhat fit the standard. Here are some more pics from today, he’s a little over 5 months old (23 weeks).

    How is the Type on this Blue Copper Marans?

    I know his color is wrong, but I'm really just trying to get a grasp on what the correct type to look for is, and I think this guy has nice type. Correct me if I'm wrong
