“I {think} I received one blue and two black Marans. New chicken mom and I’m really bad and telling them apart. The greyish colored one is my absolute favorite baby. She is so snuggly.”
Shhhh, we won't tell the others! We know how easy it is to have that favorite little one and she is so adorable, we can see why! The Blue/Black/Splash Birchen Marans may look a bit different as babies and wait until they get their feathers! They will all be absolutely stunning we are sure!
We are so happy for you! Thank you for letting us know how the babies - well I guess young ladies now - are doing! My Pet Chicken appreciates you allowing us to be a part of your flock keeping journey and hope we can provide further assistance in the future whether with flock additions, their care needs or any questions you may have. We truly do care!
Thank you for taking the time to review our little ones! We are excited to hear more about them as they grow! If you have any questions about your birds or need more information on a product we carry, please let us know. We are happy to help!
“The Darkest Eggs in my Flock!! These girls took a long time to mature, they never got much silver on them so they can easily blend into the flock and be overlooked, until they leave the nesting box! These girls (I have one blue and one black) lay the DARKEST most beautiful eggs!! They just recently started laying again after taking a few weeks off for the shortest days of the year and they are laying almost every day, dark chocolate eggs that are just beautiful. They look so amazing next to my other eggs it's like having art on my kitchen counter, the only problem I've had is the eggs are TOO pretty to crack open and eat!!!”
We truly appreciate your support and hope that these lovely birds continue to bring you joy. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.
“Bought a quite a few of these last year, a breed that I have had from top quality breeders in the past. Overall, the birds themselves were healthy enough. But never got the real birchen effects in their feathering, and they laid a decently chocolate egg, but not as dark as promised. I’ve been raising Marans for more than a decade, and understand how things go in the season. But I would say that even early in the season, these eggs were nice, but not amazing.”
Brice, thank you for the feedback on our Blue/black/Splash Birchen Marans. We understand that compared to show and breeder birds ours may not be the same. Where breeders choose their breeding stock for plumage and egg color, hatchery birds like ours are chosen for their temperament and health as well.
“Baby Marans chicks arrived lively and healthy, one was left out of my order and customer service was quick to help out. I had ordered a variety of chicks and they were packaged with a heat pack and arrived in 1 day from ship date. Very pleased with the chicks and the company, especially the way they handled my missing female issue.”
We are incredibly sorry for the oversight in your order, but we are glad that our customer service team acted promptly to resolve the issue. It is our priority to ensure that all our customers receive their orders correctly and in a timely manner.
