wheaten marans

Hello, I have 5 chickens we've raised from chicks. There are 4 different types: 1.) Cheerio - Buff Orpington x1 2.) Frenchie - Wheaten Marans x1 3.) Wells - Golden Laced Wyandotte x1 4.) New Hampshire Red x 2 I'm curious based on the pictures if you're able to say whether they are hens or...

I got these unsexed chocolate eggers from a hatchery. They're 11 days old & I'm trying to figure out their gender. I wasn't sure of their breed at first either but someone I talked to said they look like wheaten marans, although their bodies are more caramel colored than most the yellow wheaten...

I've thought a lot about whether or not to start a thread, but I have been following a few: blackacres, MaryJanet and ribh's d'coopage. They are so lovely to read, mainly for the inspiration, the kindness and encouragement from others, and the friendly connections that get made. Reading...

I posted a couple of pics of my two Wheaten Marans chicks a week or two ago. They’ve feathered slightly more now and they’re almost 4 weeks old. I’ve never raised this breed before but judging by the size of their combs I think I have two roos. But one is a lot lighter than the other which gives...

I have hatched two Wheaten Marans chicks and they are now 15 days old. I'm not sure if it's possible to wing sex these but chick 1 showed female feathering (short, long, short, long etc) at one day of age and has a lighter down colour. Chick number 2's wing feathers were all the same length, and...
