We have decided to work with BCM and we purchased some chicks from a breeder near us. Our babies are now 4 months old and I am working on developing my eye for the breed. These are our Cockerel choices from what we have already purchased. I admit these are not the best photos. I will work on getting more photos!

I am looking for the best for SOP but I am aware they all have faults and they all have a lot more growing to do. We also purchased 7 pullets.

It's filled with tons of helpful info from all our Marans experts and breeders.

I'm sure everyone there would love to see pics also and help with any questions you might have. I'm still learning all I can to better my BCM flock towards SOP and darker eggs and everyone there is very helpful with my many questions and concerns.
