I have to tell the whole story so bare with me it's funny. I saw an add on Craigs list for $5.00 6 week old Coo Koo Marans pullets that should have been my first clue, but I really wanted some chocolate egg layers. I drive 120 miles to meet this lady and she's not home so I call her she forgot about me coming. Second clue. I wait 45 min for her to show up and we finally get to the chickens, she built the coop herself and forgot to put people doors on the run 3rd clue. Ok so now she has her friend trying to scare them in the coop from outside the fence, ROFLAO. I know nothing about Marans other than they lay dark brown eggs, she is showing me the leg feathers and wings. then puts them in my crate kinda wondering what she's looking at the wings for? On the last one she pulls out the wing and said " yup all even" I ask her if she is feather sexing, yes she is. OMG I thought feather sexing could only be done on up to a couple day old chicks. I'm thinking this one is a roo. She didn't have any other pullets so I took the roo for possible breeding next spring.I think I ended up with 2 roos and 2 pullets. Here are the pictures tell me what you think. Head and body pics of each 4 chicks in total.
