OOH, look. There's a spur on the Wellie next to her, too.
I guess all the chicks from NY have got something going on!

Boy, you weren't just kidding! I looked at my "spurred" Cuckoo today and I can see that her 1"+ spurs are now sharpened to a fine point, but not like my Roos are...plus, hers are straight, no curve at all...yours look like Scimitars....I would invite that bird to chicken & dumplings next sunday....well....maybe not so much.....maybe I'm just hungry.

I don't know how she sits down without spearing herself in the butt.
I gotta take care of those soon.

On second thought....you could have some sort of genetic mutation that has run rampant throughout your flock, affecting not only your chickens, but other animals as well...are any of your pigs, cattle, horses, sheep, dogs, children, or other animals shown any sign of sprouting spurs? Did you get as big of a laugh out of reading this as I did while writing it? No? Sorry...but I am easily amused...

You'll never see me in shorts!

OK Folks... I have done my best to move your pics over to the marans sop thread

I am sorry if I missed any. Recently, there have been way too many "off-topic" postings for me to go back searching for them.

So, if I missed anything and you still want to see it added to the collection of marans DQs and Faults - - - - PLEASE POST the pics on the Marans SOP DISCUSSION thread. The link is . . .

Thanks every one for helping me get the pics over to the Marans SOP discussion thread
