i wouldhatch them and sale them to someone at local feed store who doesnt care what kinda chickens they are and use the money for feed.if it where me.

i hate when people sale things that are not what they say..There is not anyway this person has sent the wrong eggs???id ask that too.

I would be pyst and send the seller the link to this thread and probably start naming names as well.

This person is ruining the Marans.

I've got a couple of about 7 year old Marans hens that lay much darker than that thru their laying cycle. They get lighter thru their cycle, but not that much lighter. I'd be asking for a refund ASAP.

7 year old Marans still laying???? what??!!??

Is that a world record?

It may be.

They don't lay very often anymore, but they're the only ones left of my original Marans girls and I just can't bring myself to take them to the auction. Last fall I didn't know if one of them would make it through the winter, but she survived her molt and is looking good again.

Silverfilly, I love your roo!!! He's gorgeous. That would be so cool if you could reproduce him!! No matter what eggs you use to get started, I would think that the project would be tons of fun!! Good luck!
