Thanks IIF! He's a Black Copper Marans from Miss Debs eggs.

Bonnie, he was younger then, and didn't have the coloring he does now. He is pretty, we just have to work on his "tude!

Aimee, he is beautiful!! I am always fascinated (did I spell it right?) how birds change colors as they age.

One of the ducks decided to help one of the Australorps molt. The poor BA thought she was being tasted by a baracuda. The duck got sent to the corner. I was hoping they would coexist, but that seems like a pipe dream.

I know the straw isn't breed standard, but dang it, I think they're pretty!

 

[MrsDeb]

Oh heck! Go with what you got....it's just something to look for as you breed. I certainly didn't have the best and have a
LONG ways to go before they are "standard" but their getting there..!

and now that I have Bev Davis lines along with the Splash and the Blue.... I'll have a whole bunch more homework for next year...lol

Here are a couple of the girls we kept from spring....
