Ebay eggs hatching (murans that are light silver??? Deformed bcm hunchback and different size too

[Jazzchick]

half of them are getting there wing feathers already...... the one with a redish back is has long wings already at 2 days old.....

Should I assume.... and just assume mind you that the early feathering are females? I had read that as well.. just wonder how accurate it is.

Typically the pullets will feather faster than the cockerels...but no guarantee.

I don't think anyone answered your question about the "silver" ones. I believe they are just light blue.

Blue cuckoos would look grey (or silver) at hatching.

Or are they splash? Splashes look silver as hatchlings.

I did have one Blue copper muran hatch.... this one right here.... The other two are light light silver...
The blue is in the back... lil chubby wubby... the one with a red back is growing wing feathers... thought it might have been a big chubby wubby boy...

Little blue in the back is such a lil meatball..... I wuv him...
Here they are in the box.... the blue is much darker than the light ones... the eggs stated they were cuckoo.. thank you for answering my question... I could not find pix of cuckoo marans that light..
one has a feathered shank one appears to be clean legged..... one fatty feathered shank... sktinny one is clean legged it looks like right now anyway... they are very docile.. compared to the gang of black marans that I had to separate from the polish and new chicks coming into the brooder because they bullied them.... soo funny seeing babies bullying babies.

Oh and btw... the original post included thread about deformed chick..... his neck is normal now and the swelling completely gone in his foot.. I am wondering if I had the humidity too high or??? caused him swelling??
