“New Hampshire red marans”
Had some new marans project chicks hatch over the weekend! I got five out of a dozen eggs (one had webbed feet so I gave it away). A friend of mine who I consider my mentor gave me some of his eggs to hatch and continue the project! The final phenotype of these marans will resemble a New Hampshire red! I have another dozen about to hatch in a week, can’t wait to see how they look as they mature .
Sweet rainbows ready for pick ups today. If you’re local to Merriott and want some amazing fresh farm eggs, we have a stand outside our house, and can do standing orders or one offs too. We sell them in rainbow mixes or one variety boxes of chocolate brown marans, bantams, leghorn whites, speckled welsummers and pretty pinks. Various prices, pm me
A pair of black copper marans I’m keeping my eye on this season. Out of a couple dozen cockerels only 2 made it to this point (and the other guy is questionable still). Breeding can be a pain sometimes, tons of feed, time, and energy goes into raising a flock, just for a handful (if that) to make it into the breeding program. I have to say, I am happy with how these marans are turning out this season. They’re still young, but I’m hoping for some nice dark chocolate eggs out of them
Trying to figure out what eggs to incubate, but why can’t I just incubate ALL the eggs? #prettyeggs

Black Copper Marans chickand out of the 12 that hatched, a few weeks ago, there’s definitely a lot of males. That’s the way it goes. I put more in the incubator this morning.

Happy Sunday! TBT when we started to enjoy the production of #rainboweggs We have a small flock of 15 that consists of #ameraucana #marans #leghorn #rhodeislandred #plymouthrock #australorp #goldencomet #isabrown #oliveegger (which we bred from our ameraucana and marans) breeds. We are very happy with their production (color and quantity) demeanor/personalities and their ability to withstand the heat and cold of NJ.
We have learned a lot over the past couple of years and owe a great deal of thanks to our wonderful chicken community! We have made friends with people/families all over the world that share the same passion.
We’ve had #fresheggsdaily since 2017 and our family happily shares in the chores. Collecting and playing with the chicks always seem to be the most fun of course, it’s also always nice to contribute to Penny’s #eggvignette @happydaysfarm ❤️❤️❤️ #backyardchickens #gatheredfromthecoop #ilovechickens #iamcountryside
Anyone who keeps Marans will tell you that everything gets stuck to their shells......straw, shavings, feathers, you name it. The reason is that Marans color their egg shells differently than other brown laying chickens. Marans apply their pigment to the cuticle (or outermost surface) of the egg. Other brown layers apply theirs to the palisade layer of the shell (which is the outer shell but below the cuticle). This also explains why Marans pigment can be scrubbed off but other brown pigments can’t be. Pretty neat, huh
