This is one of my French Black Copper Marans hens raising Swedish Flower Hen chicks that she hatched. She was a GREAT broody, but alas too broody and went to a new home. She was also a great all around chicken!
Flora, my speckled marans is a ham. she is about 21 wks old and will soon (I hope,) lay an egg. She is friendly and loves coming to sit on my lap and talk to me in the mornings.
All very nice pictures. love the black/copper Rooster. I had one almost identical to him years ago and was the best rooster I have ever had. He was not people aggressive, but super with the hens and protectiveness of them. And to me, he was just so beautiful. I want some chocolate eggs to go in my basket. This will be me when I get some. .
