I had a mixed bag of eggs hatch at the weekend, some marans, and some others, that are bantams, but not sure of the breed, as MOH got the egs for me as a surprise, and thought that I...
I had a mixed bag of eggs hatch at the weekend, some marans, and some others, that are bantams, but not sure of the breed, as MOH got the egs for me as a surprise, and thought that I would be able to ID once hatched!

I keep a flock of 21 chickens, 9 maran hens, 3 maran cockerels, a wyondotte, light sussex, naked neck, welsummers, and...
Hi,
I have a trio of geese for breeding, they are about 11 months old now, two female toulouse and a white male.
