Title: new chucks!!
Post by: trish.farm on May 15, 2014, 08:49:26 am

Egg production from my 2 old girls has been rather poor so splashed out on a lovely Rhody and a Cuckoo Maran last night.  My huge Maran rooster was beside himself!!  Even after their move last night they both presented me with an egg this morning!!  Good girls!!    Love the cuckoo, she is beautiful!!

Congratulations! Is the Maran a dark egg strain?
