    Quote: thank you, its my Brabanter. I swear they had to cross it with doves to get this breed. It has the biggest eyes. They are super sweet too. I have two of them. If I were ever to get into breeding to improve anything, this would be the breed.

    Quote: Well, I'm not exactly next door, but I do have one hen (about 15 months), and one pullet (5+ months) that I'd be willing to give you in exchange for a 50# sack of feed. These are NOT to be used as breeders, as they both have carnation combs, a disqualifying issue within the breed. But...

    I have a question for you Marans guys. My mother and I are adding to our flock. We share a property. We do not have a rooster and do not want one, so we will not be breeding. We have a variety of chicken colors and egg colors. We are wanting a few dark egg layers. My first thought were Marans...
