    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    I actually love the shape on that guy. He CHONKY. Nice tail angle, a bit of a halo on his hackle, though otherwise his copper is pretty good. He has a fold in his wattle, and I am not real keen on the comb. Is that a double point and a small thumbprint on the blade? Eye color should be brighter...

    Feeding your LGD when you have turkeys

    Here is what I have had to do in the past in feeding a livestock guardian that guards poultry along with goats: I bring him meals 2 times a day. He eats the meal and I remove the bowl. If I did not do this with the younger one, he would get mad at the birds and eventually would guard his food...

    Wrath's Marans

    when we find a breed and variety we really like, we get to gush over it. I would certainly get immediately annoyed if someone told me their generic variety bird was better, unless they could back it up. I have, in fact, gotten annoyed about it when people message me looking for black copper...

    Glad you like. I get real nervous selling art, you never know if people appreciate living breathing works of art or if they just see a chicken.

    I am glad you had a much better hatch this year. They all look pretty alright so far. Hope those tails settle down a little

    This is the color of blue I've been angling for. What do you think?

    this juvenile has a red gene, a blue gene, and a penciled gene, and I think one black gene. What do you guys think? Does that make a semi penciled rusty slate? Is the tri coloring there too, like cgcg?

    His biggest issue is his comb.

    There is one cockerel coming up that has caught my eye. I'm gonna need to remember to post him. He's smart, handsome, and CHONK.

    International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

    overall these look healthy and they look like Marans. The black copper ones have a bit of an extra fluffy cushion giving them a more u shaped back instead of a wide flat back, but that is definately not unusable and can be worked with.Tail angles on black copper pullet 2 and 3 seem rather high...

    This legbar hidden behind the haystack. I was sure all the chicks would be olive eggers, but for some reason, all the chicks are definitely purebred. There is one splash and one blue silver marans chock, from whatever blue or splash hen decided to add to his sneaky legbar lady's nest.

    I am glad the blue silver cockerel is looking mighty fine. His silver is staying nice. If there is anywhere for the silver to be iffy, it's the wing bows on the blue silver cock birds.

    legbars have yellow skin, so that is where the yellow skin comes from.

    oooo maybe an appenzeller spitzhaben, but that girl Gingernut really does look like an isa brown, just a wild puzzle. Generally, you get a lot of body type from the dam side, and she looks like a pretty typical brown hen. I still lean towards the legbar mother, just based on that. Just where...
