She is in a pen full of “Chocolate Eggers” from cackle that are at 19 weeks tomorrow and not laying yet or getting red in their combs either! I do have some “Sapphire Sky” girls that are the same age and have been laying their green eggs for about a week or 2! Will be interesting if I can tell...
I got them from a guy that said he had too many and needed to get rid of some. He said they were Rhode Island Red (not pictured), Americana (behind the Maran in picture 2), a Maran (picture 1 and 2), and Silverudd (picture 3). Maran does not have an extra toe and neither does the supposed...
Also, does anyone know if the little lady in the last picture looks like a Silverudd? Everything i have seen online of them does not look like her.. she looks she has a darker comb/waddle and darker overall. Thanks!
I got this girl along with 3 others from a guy that ran out of room. He gave me an Americana, a RIR, a Silverrudd? Doesn’t really look like a Silverrudd i have seen pictures of but could be wrong, and the one really in question is this Maran he added in. I know MM are a cross and she has really...

Here are the ladies and the boys at 14 weeks old! The boys are in with the big girls as of this week for being a little too wound up around their own age girls. Got them put in line by the old ladies who are a mixed flock of year and a half year olds!
Yes and if you back up to the dark brown egg layer section, one cockerel looks similar to the french black tailed red maran and one looks like the french black tail buff maran lol
Also if you or anyone knows how to tell a Black Copper Maran vs a Midnight Majesty Maran apart that would be great! I got a group of 4 that are an Americana Easter Egger, Rhode Island Red, Silverudd, and a black Maran but he didn’t know what kind of black Maran. Thanks!
