You want to ask Chad about Bruce,,, he's the one that stays in touch with him.
Loving all of this garden talk!! Yay!!
Ok, who can help me out with chick ID?? I hatched these guys almost 3 weeks ago. It was a mix of ameraucana, marans and olive eggers. I know that 2 marans eggs hatched and I think I had IDed one.
I think this is one
Looks like a marans chick,,, but the brown shouldn't be there,,,, referred to as " mossy " a wheaton cross trait if it's supposed to be a black or blue copper
This is her feet...
Now is it possible this is the other??
She looks nothing like the other light chicks that hatched and has a SMALL amount of leg feathering...
If it's a marans,,,,,, probably white or wheaton or cross color again ,,,, alot of times people have wheaton Roo and think they are Black Copper,,,, similar in color with some differences that people overlook.
If not her, then who?? Here are the rest.
Again,,,, mossy chick
Possible marans,,, clean legged,,, mossy again,,, possible pullet with the darker leg color
Probably marans,,, just a bit mossy
Just got done butchering my turkey.She had so much blood in that leg, all clotted up. The bones that come down to the vent area, those thin ones, were both busted off at the tips. Her sternum was bruised to hell. He did a lot more damage to her than I knew.
Sorry to hear she couldn't be mended,,,,,,, great that you tried so hard,,,, can relate to that having animals all these years, it's never easy !
