Please, if you could pm me her info. I've been dying for some super dark eggs and haven't had any luck finding any.

She's a local girl down here where Bejammie and I are. I don't think she ships

 

[Bejammie]

She ships now I think, she said she was going to list on eBay I think....lemme call her

 

[OneMountainAcres]

I hope she ships. There are very few, good quality Marans up here. I paid $75 for 6 eggs last spring.they were beautiful dark, huge eggs but only one hatched. She grew out with no copper, carnation comb, and her eggs are barely darker than my PR girls :/

are they still under the broody? I would still give them another day or two, it's only day 21 right? maybe she wasn't totally committed the first few days, and they are a few days behind

they had liquid that smelled like hell, no birds. I am not sure about the other 2 bc I didn't want to shake them hard. but no chicks so far and it is the end of day 21.

Oh

Wonder what could have caused that

no idea. one morning she got up and couldn't find the way back. but she was out for 20-30 minutes, max 40. also those eggs were not mine but i think they were fresh.

about 6 months ago she hatched 1 chick only (out of 7) but the eggs were not mine as well. this time I saw her turning and covering eggs.
