Critique on my Black Copper Marans babies.

[katiek77]

Hello I am new to bcm. These three are our very first that we just hatched 5 days ago. Their parents were pretty birds.

Any comments would greatly be appreciated. I am wanting to learn all that I can. My children and granddaughter are going to be showing bcm in 4-h. Thank you.

This post first baby.

You cannot judge quality until they are older . For example, the standard weight for Marans pullets is 5 1/2 pounds. If you weigh them now, you will not get what you desire.

I’m wanting to see what you think of them starting off. Are they on the right tract? Do I need to look for something else if I buy baby chicks?

They look good, but where did you get them?

I mean, do you have a photo of the parents?

From a lady that raises them. These are her birds.
