    Who laid this egg?? 😅

    Hey there! Currently we only have two hens, one RIR from McMurray that we raised ourselves and is almostttt 15 weeks I believe (shipped out week of June 3rd and I believe we got them that Thursday), and one that we were told was a 1.5 year old maran (I didn’t ask which kind and we’re newbies to...

    What kind of roo is this? Chicken newbie!

    Hey guys! New to chickens and wondering what you all think this guy is. The only info I have: • the woman we got him from said he was supposed to be a black copper maran pullet but now she doesn’t know what HE is (he’s definitely crowing I know that at least 😂) • purchased from a local feed...

    10-week old French Black Copper Maran

    His name is Custard, and he is an absolute doll. So sweet and gentle! Because he turned out to be a roo, I won't be able to keep him because I don't have enough hens for him (only two!) I live in the OKC area, but I'm willing to drive and meet in OK/N. Texas area! I've rehomed my other roos in...

    BCM Chick development, male vs female

    Ok, so I've got these two, 4wk old fancy bcms. I am half convinced one is a cockerel and the other is a pullet. The thing is the one who looks and behaves like a pullet is quite bigger than the "cockerel". The "cockerel" is way feistier and more challenging to my other isbar cockerels. Also...

First 2 are of our grey Maran which hatched on 4/30. Next 3 are of black and white faced which hatched on 5/8. And last 3...

    Searching for French Black Copper Marans Pullets in Florida.

    Hey everybody, The storm has taken two of my FBCM pullets already, which leaves me with just one at 12 weeks old. So if anybody happens to have any, I’d love to pick up 2 or 3 more after the storm passes. I’m located in west palm beach Florida.

    Raising a rooster.

    A lot of people have different experiences with roosters, and of course there are a lot of different acting roosters, but today I wanna write about my experience with some. Of course this may not work for everybody’s birds, but it’s worked for mine so worth a try, right? So I’ve had both my...

    FBCM Hatching eggs (Splash, Black, Blue)

All stock has properly feathered shanks, coloration (one of my blues has a bit lighter gold hackles than the deeper mahogany). Some eggs will get lighter the longer...
