I bought the eggs from NorRusMarans.webs.com, I think he did say they had some black in them but pleasant to look at. That's fine with me as they are pets and didn't cost much. I'm new to chickens and incubating eggs. Maybe next year I'll pay the bigger price for pure white marans...

I just picked up my chicks yesterday they are about two weeks old. They are Cuckoo Marans and looks like I have at least 3 Roos. I live in Veneta, Oregon which is not far. If you want a Roo I'll trade for one of your chicks.

I found someone on the internet that sells White Marans eggs or chicks. I'm going to order only a dozen eggs and try my hand at incubating for the first time. If it doesn't work I'll order chicks from him. His website is www.freewebs.com/norrusmarans/ He is in Ohio, the only person I've...
