Thank you! I missed you guys too! Life has been ruff. To add to all the house problems and all the work that summer brings. We had 3 close family members almost die. One from pneumonia, one from heart attack/heart failure and one that has many health issues. My Aunt with pneumonia is down to 90 pounds. She is at home on oxygen and doing some better. As far as my Marans go. I don't have many left. We narrowed down roosters. Then one had leg issues from jumping off the stacks of wood. The two that I have left one ended up infertile. I hatched 3 chicks from the one. Two BLC cockerels and one BC that I am still questioning the sex. They are about two weeks old. That was my only attempt at a hatch this year.welcome back! I was wondering where you had been.
