The Middle Tennessee Thread

I live in the Leanna area of Murfreesboro, close to Walter Hill. I would like to meet you somewhere if possible. If not you can private message me your address and I will come out to your house. Am I right about a roo offering protection to my girls and kinda keeping them together? I want the nicest one you have lol.
 
Marans are a bloody lot....like Anne I have had up to 10 at a time in my Marans pen....they are thinning out some....well they were but I seem to find more and more in the nest box everyday......I have lots and lots of pullets and hens too.
What pullets do you have? On second thought I would be interested in any pullets in any breed

black copper Marans mostly. I have some laying blue rock pullets (not for breeding they were from a project cross) I have some Marans hens too.
 
just chicks in the super blue egg layers and ams. no choc orps....I have my first fertile eggs from them in the bator..... yeah!
 
Yes Marans are a broody breed. I have 3 BCM and all 3 are broody atm. My BO is a super mom. She raised 3 batches last year and 1 this year so far. And I have 2 of 5 olive eggers {maran X easter egger that went broody this year. My cochin has never in 3 years gone broody. I have never had an EE blue egg layer go broody either. I have 8 of them.
 
I am thinking about selling my Echequer flock and wonder if there is any interest here on the thread. I have 8 hens and a roo. Would like to not split them up but would sell 4 of the hens seperate if need be.
On broody Marans I have a BCM sitting and just had a Blue Copper hen hatch 3 peachicks!
