We also sell ALL chicks unsexed, as a rule of thumb they hatch 1/2 girls, 1/2 boys. thank you!

The french Black copper Maran originated in western France in the town of Marans, is best known for its dark chocolate colored eggs. It is a fast grower and does well in damp areas, having been developed in a marshy portion of France. The original French birds have feathered legs, but this characteristic has been bred out of the British and many American lines. The French recognize 8 varieties: 1. Silver Cuckoo, 2. Golden Cuckoo, 3. White, 4. Coppered Black, 5. Black, 6. Wheat, 7. Black-tailed Fawn, and 8. Ermine; they are considering adding the Silvered Black (created since 1932 and remarkable for the color and spherical form of its eggs).

the most distinctive feature of the Cochin is the excessive plumage that covers leg and foot. The skin beneath the feathers is yellow and the egg colour is brown. Eggs are also medium in size. Standard weight is 11 pounds (5 kg) for a cock, 9 pounds (4 kg) for a cockerel, 8.5 pounds (3.9 kg) for a hen, and 7 pounds (3.2 kg) for a pullet. Colour varieties include buff, black, partridge, blue, silver laced, splash, golden laced, and white. Cochins also come in a variety called frizzled, in which the feathers are turned outward. Cochins are well known as good mothers, even as foster mothers for other breeds, and they can lay many eggs, but usually not for extended periods of time. Cochins are also known to be good pet hens for the garden, as they are tame and regarded as one of the most 'friendly' chicken breeds. Cochins are quiet chickens. They scarcely crow or cluck, only when laying eggs.

NOTE: On all chick orders now i require a NON refundable $20.00 deposit prior to eggs setting in incubator. You will have 4 days after they hatch to pick them up, if not picked up by the fourth day there will be a 10 cents charge per chick per day brooding fee up to 14 days, if stil not picked up they will be sold to someone else.

Thank you for your understanding, i have had to many people cancel their orders after the chicks have hatched, and they have left me trying to find homes for them.

At times i will have extra chicks that hatch out of peoples orders, please contact me to see whats available!

When breeding blue poultry, it is important to recognize that the color blue is not a dominant gene. This means that if you breed two blue colored chickens together, you will not get ALL blue offspring. Instead, you may get 3 possible options: blue, black or splash chicks. When you breed two black chickens together, you will get all black chicks, etc. There is a table below laid out for you

Blue Poultry Genetics:

Blue X Blue = 50% Blue, 25% Black, 25% Splash
Blue X Black = 50% Blue, 50% Black
Blue X Splash = 50% Blue, 50% Splash
Black X Black = 100% Black
Splash X Splash = 100% Splash
Splash X Black = 100% Blue

We take Paypal!

The chicks will be F1 olive eggers, "first generation" my pure bred Ameraucana pullets crossed with marans roosters

please note there is a small possibility that the hens could lay brown eggs instead of green as the gentics have lots to do with it, i cant guarantee they will lay olive green eggs but there is a high chance they will!

Buckeye

cuckoo marans

The Buckeye is a breed of chicken originating in the U.S. state of Ohio. Created in the late 19th century, Buckeyes are the only breed of American chicken known to have been created by a woman, and the only one to have a small "pea" comb. As of 2008, Buckeyes are extremely rare, and breed conservation organizations have recognized them as critically endangeredThe Buckeye male weighs an average of 9 lbs (4.1 kg), and the hen 6.5 lbs (3 kg). The breed has yellow skin and lays brown eggs. Its primary color is a mahogany red with black tails; sometimes males have other dark feathering. According to the breed standard, a Buckeye's plumage should ideally resemble the hue of an Ohio Buckeye's seeds. Especially in the hen, the breed is very similar in appearance to the Rhode Island Red, although can be differentiated by a bar of slate color on the back feathers close to the body; the body is also much more compact, with a short, yet broad, back.

The Buckeye is the only purely American breed to sport a pea comb, and this, combined with its stocky build, makes it a supremely cold hardy chicken.

Buckeye day old chicks $8.00 each

NOTE: i can only sell 1 dozen of black/blue copper marans at a time per customer as i only have 6 hens to fill orders to ensure freshness, thank you
