    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...

    calling MARANS experts

    Hi, I am new to your site and have a question, I recently hatched chicks from a mixed incubator and kept two thinking they are Marans from the batch, as of their feathered legs I kept those two. The other chicks were given to a friend. The two I kept are now 3 weeks old, but their combs look...

    Wondering what she could be

    We got this chick from tractor supply in the beginning of may. She was labeled as a midnight majesty maran, but as i'm looking at her she really doesn't look like my other midnight majesty maran chick. Could she be a black copper maran? She is also pretty skittish and isn't very friendly.

    Got my daughter 2 for $3 Marans at a flock swap

    My 6 year old loves her 4 hens, enjoys hanging and cuddling her chickens. We went to a flock swap event for discounted accessories, she ended up enamored by an 11 year old trying to unload his birds. 1. He told us the chicks were girls ( I know they are different ages) but I’d like to confirm...

    Massive eggs from Teeny Hen

    I have a maran cross, she’s always been small about 2.5kg and she’s 2 years old. Her condition… Her wattle is lovely and red, she’s currently sprightly and her eyes are clear. Her coat is black still with the blue when the sun catches it. She’s seems to be a very healthy girl. However here’s...

    Midnight Majesty Maran

    One of my favorites in our flock- a gothic cutie with an extra large comb and her name is Brunhylda. She is an absolute cuddle bug. She lays big chocolate brown eggs and doesn't care what anyone thinks of her style or taste in music. Seriously sweet tempered girlie. She has a sister that is...

    I'm planning to hatch chicks for sale for the first time soon.

    I've been around small scale chicken flocks my whole life. My grandma had chickens, my mom had chickens, and I've had a flock of around a dozen for the past 5 years. This year I'm upscaling and doing things differently. I currently have 5 roosters, 35 hens, and one pekin duck hen. I have...

    Is this normal?

    I got 5 maran chicks from TSC but only 3 survived, and two of them have white/gray legs and one has yellow legs. I'm wondering if that's a normal thing or something else. Maran #1 Maran #2 Maran #3

    Polish Maran

    I was gifted this Polish maran mix. I'm not sure on age I would say born sometime in June. Curious if it's a pullet or cockerel?

    Heartbroken -- I've lost a hen for the first time… no idea what happened to her

    A short while ago, I discovered one of my 12 week old Cuckoo Marans, Fifi, laying motionless at a funny angle under the henhouse inside the run. I retrieved her body -- no apparent injuries; her legs and wings were stiff, her eyes closed and slightly sunken, but her head and neck just flops...

    Rooster in need a home in Central Wisconsin

    Discovered our 4-month-old copper black Maran is a rooster. Unfortunately, we cannot have roosters in town. Free to a good home and willing to deliver in the central Wisconsin area. He is a friendly guy and handles well.
