Oh it's definitely Marans. Bought eggs and hatched myself. The colour is definitely off and a throwback to something. But that egg was the colour of dark chocolate. The other girls I have from from the same hatch have very different colouring.
I am second guessing myself with this chick. I was thinking this was a pullet but she now has some weird tail feathers coming in which make me think roo. What do you think? Wheaten Marans, 7 weeks.
Any help sexing these chickens? Wheaten Marans and Blue Wheaten Marans. 4wks old. These are eight different chicks. Comment hen or roo on each pic. I am really hoping they are all hens. Cause out of the 25 chicks, these are the only ones that might be hens I had thought before that I had a lot...
Well here they are again a week later. I have divided them into what I think are girls and boys. There are a couple in the girl group I am a little unsure of. What do you think? Have I divided them correctly? And fyi- they are only in these totes for the purpose of sexing and picture taking...
I don't know what happened. She was fine this morning at 10.... when I came home at 2, she was like that. They already had vitamins in their waters. I did separate her once I found her. but she was dead by 5pm. I knew she wasn't going to make it, she just looked like she was dying...
So this chick was perfect this morning. But now her neck is all twisted to the side and she is stumbling around. I have been holding her for a bit and she is laying in my hand not moving. My instinct is she is dying. But why? And what's wrong?? She was happy this morning. [/IMG]
