These two are my only blue copper Marans, I am hoping that they will produce some babies this year:3

Blue? In this picture? The hen looks like a golden cuckoo possibly mixed with a blue. I am not an expert though. They look really extraordinary.

I hope you have a great hatch!

I finished my article on purchasing birds from a breeder: https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/tips-for-purchasing-birds-from-a-breeder

All the luck in the world to your little hatch!!

That's wonderful!!

Let us know, crossing my fingers for you!

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone! It's been a couple days (sorry I'm a little slow!) But this little one made it into the world safe and sound

to me, it looks like a pullet and "she'll" need a name. Any good suggestions?

Also, the breeder feels bad that only one egg hatched for me and said that she may send me some more eggs

Name ideas:
Something about bring a lone survivor...
Being lucky but not the name lucky that's to commen
Tough or strong related names because she was a fighter to hatch
Or something related to her dark Brown eggs like nutmeg, coco or mocha????
