Eric, about 75% should be bantams. Feather legged is what I'm planning on breeding for, so that is good. I sent some eggs to Alexandra Douglas and she got all feather legs, which she was happy with. Bev Davis lives close to her and is planning on helping her develop them! So I'll be able to pick her brain too on these. And yes, they are pigs! I think they waste more than they eat though! Keep me posted on them, if you would. I'm going to be splitting them up and doing some planned matings soon.

Sam... don't forget to check: feathersite.com That site might help too. Did you see my comment about your husband and my conversation? It's back a few posts.
Trish, the little marans are pigs! Got to slop em' twice a day! One of them has feathered legs. Is that normal? Out of six, how many can I expect to be bantam? They are cute little pig balls though. Still fluffy but growing 6 to 12 inches a day! Am going to give them 2 days to clean up the mess in the corner they scratched out of the feed dish.
