    Cross Breeds

    I have 2 black copper Maran roosters in my flock and several different hen types. I recently had a successful hatch of 2 eggs from my coop one is very much a Maran the other I believe is a x with ISA brown. Opinions? Thoughts? How do I determine sex? Thanks!

    Gender in Breed?

    This little sweetie is nearly 4 weeks. It hatched from a Black Cooper Maran egg.

The comb is prominent but there is no sign it’s...
