    Baby chick with a swollen neck, cant stand (video included)

    This copper maran chick hatched 2 days ago and hasnt been able to stand or walk. The back of its neck is sizably large, and its a thick lump. Not sure what to do. It seems lively, peeping and trying to walk around.

    Selling mixed breed rooster (Bruce) to good home locally (Brunswick County NC)

    This is my almost 2yr old stag Bruce Wayne (Bruce). I'd love to give him to someone who only plans on having one rooster with a smaller flock of hens. Someone who will treat him well. I'm selling him for 10-15 dollars to recoup a miniscule amount of money spent on him. You'll have to supply a...

Any ideas what would cause this? Recently sprayed elector psp, coop and run are clean and has access to...

    Black maran or black copper maran

    Hello, could someone please clarify if this pullet is a black maran or a black copper maran? The poultry farm I purchased it from claimed it was a black maran, but their hatchery that supplies them only has French black copper marans. Additionally, I’ve heard black copper marans are sometimesc...

    Black copper maran - pullet or cockerel?

    This BCM is 17 weeks and 5 days old. It hasn't started crowing yet, so I can't tell by that. I've seen some pictures of BCM hens online with fairly large wattles and combs, and by this age, the BCM cockerels I've seen online seem to have much more prominent rooster features. But, I'm just...

    My flock is finally home

    We are finally moved up to the homestead and about 90% of my flock is now up here, too. I AM SO HAPPY. For the last year, my flock has been at another farm while we were transitioning out of town and up into the homestead. They were not cared for well. Over winter, I lost 2/3 of the flock and...

    Hey! I have 2 lavender Orpington and 1 Black Copper Maran (I think) Chick. They are all 5 weeks old. I’m leaning to all being pullets but wondering your thoughts? The lavenders are sweet and docile but the BCM is skittish and flighty. Have has all since hatched and handled daily. Thanks!

    BCM, 4 weeks

    I have three baby black coppet marans, born May 20 (so I know it's early). I'm leaning toward #3 being a boy. I know the obvious male copper spots on the shoulders when I see them but is there anything else I can look for?

    Black copper maran roo x RIR

    I've ordered 1 maran roo and 25 rir to just have a fun experiment 😀. I'm looking to breed a more frequent layer of dark brown eggs. I know some have done this but I'm curious about egg color. Does anyone have any photos?
