Wrath's Marans

Sad update, I turned the incubator off yesterday and checked all the remaining eggs and none developed.
Scrambled from shipping I'm assuming. There was one that had a slight embryo but quit. 😞

This is in no way, shape or form a reflection on @Bantambird. These were packed perfectly, shipped Priority and she's been in contact thru every step, above and beyond and answering all my questions.
I would not hesitate to get eggs from her again and hopefully will here next spring because I need more...🙂

I don't know enough to know exactly what went wrong, so thoughts are welcome. But I do know that's the chance we take when shipping or receiving eggs and the in between we can't control. So I press forward.... ♥️

Truth, shipping has been disastrous on eggs this year. I hatched 6 out of 14 the first round, and 1 out of I think it was 16 the second time this year.

I'm glad I know of a good BBS Marans egg source, just in case I "need" some next spring (which I think I do...) :lau

Wow...sorry. I definitely feel your pain and it sucks being in that club.
Pulls on the heartstrings when you wanted something so bad for so long and finally get the opportunity.

I got my wish for boys from Kong x Betty's eggs. I see 4 out of the 5 at 3 weeks old....🤣

Orange band facing left is my iffy still, but leaning cockerel.

Green band has the brown head spot ... (facing right in front of Momma).
I'm told this brown head spot is a sign of purity in BCMs, so this little man will stay for sure to watch. I'll get some better pics over the weekend as I need to check the leg bands.
