International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

[OneMountainAcres]

They are looking great! I hate when riff raff breaks out amongst the birds. All those male hormones just cannot be contained sometimes. Lol

You're telling me! The turkeys were at each other's throats this morning :/ I actually had to seperate them! Thankfully, the chickens have behaving themselves for the most part :/

I am back home and the roosters in the bachelor pen started fighting. My husband had to separate one of them. Here are a few pictures of some of my birds. The white leg band Blue Copper cockerel has a lighter grey feather in his tail but it is not white.

I got my 2 remaining black copper girls moved in with my cream legbars today. They are a little more aggressive than the CLs. I hope they settle in ok.

Im guessing it's the people that organize the show, i'm almost positive it's not the actual people showing.

She was all over me wasn't she?? LOL. Hahaha right! She thought I was a complete idiot because she thought I had entered her as a "Maran". Like hello lady, the cards are made before exhibitors ever get there. And did you see I even posted a pic on the post of my entry form? Bam! Not today lady, not today! LOL

It is the people who make out the cards.. not everyone is educated on Marans and think that the S is only applicable in the pleural form. I do plan on messaging the director that organized the show just as an FYI.
