Blue Cuckoo Marans Cockerel in Central NC

[3KillerBs]

Stripes is the extra chick from my Sept. 21 Welp order.

He's handsome fellow with a nice record of early development, having been the first boy in this batch to show his comb. Since he's a clean-legged Marans and I only want the feather-footed French type he's not suited for my goals.

I can't say anything about his temperament at this age. For what it's worth, I intentionally avoid making pets out of my cockerels and he's in a mixed age flock with adult hens and a senior cockerel.

If you want Blue Cuckoo genetics and the potential to father dark-egg layers I'm asking $10.

You can see that he's in the middle of a juvenile molt and that his new feathers coming in well-marked.

Pretty bird good luck.

Thanks. I figured that he's unusual enough to deserve a chance to be more than a chicken dinner.

 

[3KillerBs]

Still Available.

I thought he would be snapped right up the handsome guy. I just saw someone looking to get a roo but he is in Mass. good luck.

Wait till you see the photos I'm uploading now. He's got his new feathers in and he's even more gorgeous.

Not so scruffy-looking anymore.

I wish I could have roos. I think they are the best looking. Your guy is really filling out well.

You should see Green, the biggest of the Blue Australorp boys.

But I can't show him to you because I don't have a current solo photo -- they don't like to stand still for pictures. I just know how heavy he is from tossing him out of the nestboxes every night (the chicks are determined to sleep in there).

Stripes is promised to a buyer, but I'll take names for backup in case the deal falls through.
