Chirping
I had chickens when I was 10 or 11, typical feed store brown layers we got as pullets and 2 chicks that were all black and lovely but we had no idea what the breed was. Unfortunately a racoon took out the whole flock one day and I moved on to bees.
I've used BYC for information since I began thinking about starting a flock earlier this year.
My neighbour hatched out a batch of chicks and had some extra Salmon Faverolles that she offered me. That started me looking at coops and breeds... and down the rabbit hole I went.
I settled on Black Copper Marans and purchased fertile eggs locally (Ontario, Canada). Mike just hatched this morning, day 20, the first of it's brothers and sisters. A friend also gave me 4 Cream Legbar eggs that are in the incubator too. I'll post seperatly about the hatch.
Check it out to follow the Black Copper Marans / Legbar egg journey.
