Lets play a guessing game! What are his origins?!

[CrazyCochin]

When was the Chicken in question hatched?

He is less than a year, so I would say...

I will post pics of the rooster! And yes they are cuckoos, and no he isn't barred, the possible daddy.

Our marans are cuckoo marans...

I have to think on that...

I have to think on that...

Around march maybe...

This is the rooster! Ezra!

@Pyxis is right!
You have Cuckoo Marans and had a barred rock hen, right lothal?

Okay, the rooster is an EE.

Yes, i do...

He has been with the hens the most, and i think that is why we get a lot of white and cream chicks. We did, however, get a dark barred baby, he also has a white spot on his head... pointing to the obvious gender.

I’m guessing it’s the EE roo x Barred rock, he looks more barred than cuckoo.
What color egg is he from?
Do your cuckoo Marans lay dark eggs or is there one that lays a normal brown?
That will narrow it down.

That's good to know.
