Wanted: 2 marans roos

[ChickPooh]

I'm looking for 2 new roos (will pay for them), and finding a pair that was raised together turned out to be a hard task!!

I'll be using them in my breeding program, so ideally they are:
MUST be within bred standards
* 1 black copper, 1 blue (2 blacks work as well, but not preferable)
* LOTS of feathers on their legs
* Born from a hen that lays VERY DARK eggs, preferably a 7 or 8
* Between 6 and 18 months of age (older is fine, but not preferable)

I live in Yelm / Olympia area, WA state.

Thank you!

Hiya!!

I can provide you with a pair that are currently housed in my bachelor pad. I do ship.

They boys are full grown, but only about 6 mos, so they aren't nearly as heavy as they will be at a year. The lankiness is a plus on the shipping weight. I have a blue and 2 Black Coppers available, and you can look back at my past auctions to see my birds.

I would put the shipping cost at right around $100, though it may be cheaper depending on the actual weight of the boys. The box is $20, but if you want to send me two singles, I can tape them together.

Is this the past auction you were talking about?

That's one of them- I've had Marans for years, so there are a bunch of them. I have an auction up in the 24 hour crazy auction thread and it gives a little bit of info. I can get you pics of the boys tonight in a couple of hours.

Cheers,

Renee

Would you still happen to have the roos? If yes, what egg color did they come from, and do you have their pictures?

Thanks!
