Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 What lovely eggs! Maisie's eggs changed colour too. The first few were kind of grey/green, now they're paler but a nicer green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsCube Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 That does look pretty. How frequently are they ment to lay? BTW yes Marans are known for producing very strong shelled eggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 She's laid every other day so far - I'm happy with that considering she's a pure breed and the time of year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 our maran's eggs are rock hard too!! ....dunno whether thats typical of the Maran egg? I think it must be Chelsea. Elsbeth's eggs are tiny, but very dark and rock hard too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
