Hi Donna, yes we LOVE LOVE LOVE it here!!!! And no, we have actually cut our herd from 14 a year ago to 7, and working on increasing chickens, esp. the BC and blue Marans, those eggs are AMAZING!!! I only have the one BC Maran hen out of the batch I got from you, and she only lays one egg...
Just fired up my 'bator for the first time this year after installing a fan kit in it (LG) Gonna start collecting eggs from my girls, will be concentrating on Marans, blue and black copper, I only have one black copper hen, and 3 blues, (one splash who isn't laying yet) not sure how many eggs...
thanks for your comments. if there is birchen in them, what would I end up with? they are all brothers/sisters as I only had one BCM roo and one splash hen to work with. will be getting more lines next year. the blues are 4 1/2 months, the BCM's are 7 months. What again was the ratio when...
I ended up with only one BCM pullet, and one roo worth keeping. Out of my blues, I have 3 pullets, and 2 roo's, one of which was injured by a dog and is in recovery.

Any opinions out there about these birds?
