4 feather legs, 3 clean legs now... 7 eggs left, only 1 has a pip, and of course the 4 darkest eggs in the bunch are all showing no action! between the power outage and clean legs this is not exactly what i was hoping for in my hatch

So if the feather legged chicks that i keep have a 50% clean legged chick sibling ratio, does that mean that they will only have 1 copy of feather legging as well? as such i will probably hatch out many clean legs from them wont i?

Is this a Maran?

Just starting with Marans. I have 10 chicks that are black copper and possible some blue copper. To me they all appear to be black copper. Is there a way to distinguish between black copper and blue copper chicks? They are 7 - 14 days old.

No - - I don't think so.

It is not a speckled sussex either. . . .

Could be partridge rock or Golden lace wyandotte.
