Yes, parasitic.. it gets confusing still at times. Thanks for the explanation again.Do you mean parasitic white? Recessive white makes a bird entirely white, but does nothing if split. Parasitic white is one we don’t know much about, but occurs in the tail base and wings, often increasing with age.
They really are fantastic for hatchery birds, you’d think they were from an independent breeder. I think you’ve mentioned the hatchery before, they deserve a well done, hopefully they keep it up and it wasn’t just good luck, so more people can have access to good marans.
Once I evaluate all then hens and the pullets when older, I will try and think of the best pairs. I don’t have all the experience others have at this though, but I’m happy to give suggestions anyway.
Meyers hatchery in Ohio, been 4 yrs now so I don't know the quality anymore, but I do have a (I believe 2.40 credit there still) with King being my accidental roo.
Your insight and suggestions is always very much appreciated.
