Marans Thread - breed discussion & pictures are welcome!

I am sure you can get both at the website. Walt said no pictures even in the reprint. Maybe in 10 years in the NEWer Edition.

I thought he said there was an insert for these books and it will be added to the back of a reprint without pictures.

This is what he told me over on the Ameracauna thread! (probably where you read it)
He said the insert was in the back of the book and that the Marans would be included in the reprint (no pics)

I'll go see if I can find it

Quote: I just reread it he said they would catch it in the reprint as a SUPPLEMENT like an addendum it will be bound in the reprint. We just need to get the SOP from the Marans club.... I have a Word file for all my Marans Info and have it already. I just got it for the Ams.... I don't have any SOP info on them

Quote: Sorry, I wasn't clear. THe book is important. Has good information for all people breeding chickens. Just meant the marans info was available on line if the APA didn't send it.

Does NPIP come to your house? That's probably a silly question

Yes it is. I was the OP and was just asking why I could not find it in the book. Thought I was missing it some how. Thanks to all who responded.

You have to have testing done on your birds and pay a fee here in our area to be NPIP

Yes.

Yes.

Cool, I will pay the annual fee just to get them checked. You never know, lol.

Quote: NPIP is a program that is run at the state level and some states require a fee of some kind, I"ve seen, per bird fees and per flock fees and free of fees. Do a google search that includes your state name.

In Massachusetts, testing is free and not mandatory but recommended.

I'm not sure what "annual fee" you are talking about--does your state charge an annual fee?

Thanks, not sure but I will check, I'd feel better to have some testing done, just to play it safe
