I got a few girls from my husbands buddy and this pullet was identified as a black Maran. Doesn’t seem right to me with those white feathers. Any thoughts?
Hello! First time hatching chicks! These are 4 week old Marans. I think the first one is a cockerel because his comb is growing a lot faster than the others. But does the second picture look like a pullet or is it still too early to know? Could they just be developing slower?? Thanks!
Last September hubby picked up new chicks from Tractor Supply, but he doesn't remember what they were listed as, only that they were female. I've attatched a few pics-I'm going back and forth between australorps and marans (they had both).
Hello!
I got some birds from someone who hatched a bunch of mystery eggs, and couldn't give me much info on them... I have some guesses about a few but wanted some other input from those who may know more!

In search of a breeder for black Marans. I'm looking for hatching eggs currently, but it's very difficult to find them as if you search for them black copper comes up. Looking for breeders that breed to SOP.
Thanks in advance

Last week I bought 3 maran lol pullets
They have all lost condition but one in particular has lost significantly more than the others.
None of them are eating very much
Should I be worried and is there anything I can do to help
Would a chick still be sex link ( white dot on the head of roos) if I crossed a cuckoo maran hen with a silver spangled apenzeller rooster ( I have 2 I don't know what to do with, they're too pretty to kill)
Thanks
ISO:
French Black Copper Marans- good type and dark egg layers
Polish - because a good helper wants to have a few in the flock
non-bantam Cochin - for brooding
I live in NW North Carolina :)

Hi all :)
It was suggested that I post in here when August is 2 months old.
But I was curious to see what others ideas of the result could be.
Today August is 32 days old.
The yellow hatch-mates are already fully feathered. August seems to be about a week or so behind them in development, but...
13 weeks old, from a farm in PHX, no crowing yet, Black Marans of Olive Egger (all black slight copper on neck and 2 white spots rear), and my mystery fella (I think has Marans, feather feet but puffy cheeks) Amaracana. No pointy neck feathers on the grey one, but acts like a roo, bossy and...
I have these two beauties that I bought a couple months ago as cuckcoo maran at the local feed store. Somebody told me that they are barred rocks. Can anyone tell me what they are, and how do you tell the difference ? I looked on line, but they pretty much look the same to me.(Miss Lilly had to...
To all people who know the SOP for Marans, what do you have to say about mine. Got it from a lady who got him from Greenfire farm C line.
Not planning on showing him, but will like to know what I have.

Today my fiance and I have 43 chickens, at least half are silkies (my sweet babies). The...
