Hello! I hatched quite a few chicks this year (250+) and these are the gals that did not make it to my breeding program. However, they will be a good addition to your laying flock! I have several black copper marans pullets (20+) and a few black and blue ameraucana pullets (~10-15). Laying...
I have 1 breeder quality black copper marans pullet available. $30/firm. She will make a good addition to a breeding program, or even as layer for your mixed flock. She is not perfect- her top line is wrong, but she has great hackle color, leg feathering, correct colored eyes, etc. Local pick up...
Hey Lisa,
Oh! I am so very sorry to disappoint, but I do not have any chicks or eggs at this time :( I don't have any breeding pens set up, and won't until later this year, closer to September.

Sure, if you would PM me I would be happy to discuss genetics.
Thanks!

It really is huge. It's more than ready for the freezer. Got a great deal on it, so I'm keeping it for a month and feeding it to "clean it out" (alfalfa pellets, non-GMO hog mash, old milk) and then taking it to the processor.
