Friday & Saturday we welcomed another batch of babies. I anxiously await hatch day(s) & am amazed every single time at the wonders of life.
This month we incubated Easter Eggers & Marans. The Marans eggs were from our 3 Black Copper Marans hens with a Blue Copper Marans rooster. So, the chicks hatched could be either blue or black. I didn’t really care which color they were, but I am hoping they end up with copper around their hackles or neck area. That’s a trait we’re trying to work on.
HATCHING!

Two chicks moving along with the zipping process! Soon the mystery will be revealed. Are they Blue Marans or Black Marans? We ended up with a few of each – some blue & some black.

Spring is officially here & we have babies. Life is good.
