Add a few and we're up to 5/7 so far! How can splash marans chicks be such different colors? two are grey and two are pale yellow and one is yellow-yellow! Oh, well...

You'd better be sure not to mix the splash up with the light blues!

It can be tricky at times.

Well, I bought Splash Marans eggs, from a breeder in TX who only had pens of splash roos over splash hens.... Do you think I ended up with something else? The two grey ones look like what I was expecting, but two are pale yellow and one deeper yellow as well as being so, so fluffy compared to my BCM chicks (now 5 weeks and hooligans!). I might have guessed silkie if i was just handling the chicks without knowing!! Did I mention fluffy? One has such big hair I already named it Dolly (Parton)!

Ah, okay, I see then.

Then, yes, all you have is splash.

Maybe AKbirdbrain will check in. They came from her.
