smanners Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Our 5 day old marans chicks ( 2 french copper black and 1 blue splash) appear to have fluffy legs Does this mean that they will have feathered legs as adults? It's just that I don't remember seeing the parents with feather trousers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Marans do have feathers on their legs, not as many as a Brahma for instance but there are definitely a few feathers there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smanners Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 Oh thank you griffin. Thats great news I've always admired chickens with feathered legs. Nows to hoping they are girls and we can get some lovely dark brown eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phosphorus Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 My two gold brahma chicks have gorgeously fluffy feet and legs already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
