Marans Thread - breed discussion & pictures are welcome!

"On the 3rd day of Christmas my true love gave to me: Three French Hens..." Broody blue and black copper ones at that lol !! Oh dear, I think I need to make that broody wagon thing that someone posted. It sounds like the perfect thing. Maybe I should make a couple.

whats this broody wagon you speak of? please give me some pics sounds interesting
 
Here are a couple little ones I have growing out now.

#1 Roo: 10 weeks. I will use him to add some color to my girls. He usually holds his tail higher. Hes just not happy with his company lol.



#2 Roo: 6 weeks old. He doesnt have split wing. No white underfluff as of now.






And just for the heck of it. One of my little pillows!

 
Hello everyone :) Aces pictures reminded me of my Rocky boy (think back a few months :D ) who I rehomed to my sister in law. She hasn't really taken a shine to him, but sent me a pictures of him today. He has grown!!! Thought I would share....... maybe a good offer she would be willing to part with him lol



Boy I would be very interested but shipping is a killer! If either of you are coming down south give me a holler!

Clown, would love to see a pic of #1 in a "normal" stance. #2 - it looks almost as if he has mossiness in the picture - in his wings - maybe the angle or lighting? Okay, that pillow is cute as a button!
 
Sorry Raven, no planned trips to TN

Although I do have a cousin there who may be visiting here in the spring...

My sister in law has had a horrible predator problem at her place. I swear she is just feeding the wildlife with her free rangers...... but anyways (that is a topic for another day)...... this boy she said is doing great in her flock now that he has "grown up" a bit. He has learned to be a rooster finally.... keeping the ladies in check. Sounds like she may want to stick with him- but who knows- she may change her mind. She just wants a rooster with the flock- no real purpose for him or his breed.

Well, I will try and get a better pic of him soon. He doesnt sit still, and he is NOT happy about being in with some hens I put with him. So he spends all of his time pacing the fence and staying away from the insane girls! Us men do that a lot lol. Oh and the small roo has no mossy feathers at all. That was the flash.

I could trade her #2 for him.... Just planting the seed if the opportunity comes up - Thanks!
