My Newest Babies.

[Critter Crazy]

This was my forst attempt at Incubation, and I had a 60% hatch, so not too shaby I think, especially since most of the eggs were shipped.
These abbies are 23 days old now.

3 Rhode Island Reds

3 Barred Rocks

1 Mille Fleur D'Uccle

3 Cuckoo Marans

1 White Crested Black Polish

1 Bantam Araucana

2 Buff Orpingtons

and two "I have no Clues"

Yup! What a stressful 3 weeks that was!!

I slept net to the incubator the last 3 nights, hubby said I was weird!

From the white spot on the heads of those Marans, and the lighter coloring, it looks like they may be roos. It looks, from the pics, to be pretty defined.


I love Maran roos. They are truly gentle giants.

Good luck with your new flock

it dosent matter if they are roos or not, we have plenty of room here, and I love them all. Besides, my aunt was interested in a roo if I got any, so we will see.

As I said in my post, I love Maran roos. The ones we have are such sweet hearts. They eat out of our hands and come running when they see us to find out if we brought them any goodies. And they are VERY impressive looking


In the pic their legs look yellow. Was that just the flash???

Nope, the Barred rocks are younger than the cuckoo marans. The pics are not mixed up.
