Wheaten and Blue wheaten Marans Discussion Thread

Quote:
I have 24 wheatens and hope to find some with the darker undercolor who are also good in all the other areas also. They have heavily feathered shanks so thats good. I did notice that there were some that had bad combs and a couple that are not nearly as large as most of them. Actually, I was not going to do too much with them cause I also have the BC's, Black Tail Buffs and Golden Cuckoos and I am not completely set up for seperating and breeding more than two types yet. All of them free range now out of one coop but I have an additional shed that I plan to split in two and fence a couple of yards for them. I was going to concentrate on the BC's and the cuckoos to begin with but thoughs darn wheatens are so prettey I might have to make three yards and do those also. I always over-do everything anyway, what the heck?

I for one, would love to see some pics of your wheatens! Wish I had known when I had my coop built that I would eventually go off the deep end with the Marans! I am also waiting for weather, time, help and MONEY to build the next coop/run set up. Come on Lottery!! :lol:

I'm with you!

Here are some pictures. Don't have many yet but I'll get more. They are all huddled up in the shade panting right now. Makes it
kind of hard to get good pic's.

Guess which one is not a Wheaten
