i read in a poulty magazine (the uk one) that marans are not supposed to have feathered shanks, but I am finding most of the ones (atleast the rare color ones) here do have them. FOr instance, out of the 4 silver chicks I hatched I have 2 /and 2 w/o, which initially made me believe I had 2 of each sex, but my roo and 1 girl don't have it, and 2 girls do. Shouldn't I be breeding towards bare legs?
Thanks so much,
Kristi
