I’m a chicken and guinea owner from New York and we’ve owned chickens on and off in the past years. However, this year our flock is bigger than ever and I’m very excited to watch them grow...

    Sexing Cuckoo Maran and Ameraucanas

    Hello, I have always purchased Hens that were just starting to lay. This is our first time with getting day old chicks. We are getting Cuckoo Marans and Ameraucanas. For both breeds what do I look for in sexing without using the vent? I am not experienced enough so will not try for safety of...

    Archibald was my mom's pet rooster

    (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? We picked up our first batch of day-old chicks on Wednesday, April 15th. Tax day! I grew up in an agricultural area and also always heard stories growing up about Granny get locked in the chicken coop, Archibald the rooster and his...

    One year old cuckoo maran does not appear mature

    Last February I purchased four cuckoo marans from cackle hatchery. One chick died within a week but the other three were strong healthy chicks and grew well. Two of them started to lay late summer, somewhere around six plus months old. The third however seems to have not matured any since then...

    Sorry It’s Been A Long While

    Sorry it’s been a long while since I last posted. Let me give you an update on their progress. My chickens are doing great. We used to have 11 chickens but two died. The two that died were Fidget the Silkie and Martha the Faverolle chicken. We had to sell the white cockerel male, which I renamed...

    Well, we heard one of our chickens rooster call, which one is it?

    I’m betting that it’s the little one, just Becuase she turned five weeks and has a red comb already and just somehow looks like a boy to me. My question is what do you guys think? We have three chickens. Two are pullets I believe. We have one buff Orpington 7 weeks old, one barred rock (or...

    What breed would you call these?

    I have a handful of lavender orpington roo over cuckoo Maran chicks in my backyard. Some have a splash looking color, two have copper feathering coming in on the neck and one is all lavender (may have been from a lavender hen). What would you call their breed, or are they just considered...

    Male or Female Cuckoo Maran?

    I have an 8 week old cuckoo maran and I've always thought that he was a boy, but I wanna double check before I rehome him (I can't have roosters in my town)! Thanks in advance!

    Are They Good To Have? (Cuckoo Marans)

    Tomorrow after our garage sale I'm heading to the feed store to get some chicks to give to our broody hen, Mouse. I was originally only getting 4 Buff Orpington chicks but decided on getting 2 Cuckoo Maran chicks to add. Are they good to have? How friendly are they? Thanks in advance!

    My two hens - Cuckoo Marans, Barred Rock, Or?

    Bought these two girls as a few months and they were sold as Cuckoo Marans. The older they get, the more they're looking like Barred Rocks. I do have a younger Barred Rock in the flock but her face and legs look a tad different so that's what throws me off. They're about 5 months old and just...

    Cuckoo French Marans over Ameruacana- sexable?

    Hi. Here's an old post with some info. I need help figuring out the reverse.. I have the FCM Roo over the AM hen. Can't they be sexable (maybe not as easily) by white tips on wings, or somehow with spot on head or something else in the barring pattern? I think the ones I used a cream crested...

    Is my cuckoo maran a roo?!

    Here’s our cuckoo. I believe she’s about 4 weeks or so, we got her from a feed store that labeled the lot of chicks “pullets” but of course hat might not be guaranteed. I did some research beforehand and picked the chick with the most defined white spot and darkest feathers! But as the chick...

    Cuckoo Maran?

    I got this chick at tractor supply. Apparently the bins were not marked correctly and since I’m a newbie I had no idea. Any idea what type of chicken this is and if it is a pullet or cockerel? I posted pics from 1 week through now at 8 weeks old. Sorry I am in some of the pics, lol. I’m really...
