Ok, here's an update! All 5 of my BC Marans eggs that I had left have hatched! 5 beautiful babies! The one is still kind of weak, so I hope she makes it...she seems to be doing a little better.
Katy - I think the Wheatons are beautiful also and they're next on my list! Want to sell me some eggs when yours start laying?!
here's hoping your weak one will be okay. Sometimes when they have to work extra hard to get out of the egg they are just pooped and it takes a while for them to get their strenth back and then they are fine.

Pretty, very pretty, some might fine birds! It was seeing neat birds like these, Before I got so impressed by the eggs, that got me interested in Marans in the first place. Thanks for sharing.
I have a rooster, we call him Thing, that is very similar to your first pic. He's gender confused, quite effeminate really, and soooo gentle.
Mine wont pose either, I have a digital camera and erase thousands before I get one or two good ones!
