ATTENION PLEASE READ THE TERMS AND SHIPPING SECTION OF THIS AD BEFORE BIDDING. ALSO FEED BACK WILL NOT BE USED AS A BARGINING TOOL OR FOR EXTORION, I AM SORRY TO BE SO BLUNT AS 99.9% OF THE EBAYERS I DO BUSINESS WITH ARE GREAT PEOPLE THAT I LOVE DOING BUSINESS WITH, BUT AS YOU KNOW....THERE ARE ALWAYS A FEW BAD APPLES IN THE BUNCH. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO LOOK AT MY AD. Up for bids are 8+ (plus meaning any extras available at shipping time) Copper Black Marans eggs. The Copper Black Marans lay the extra dark egg that has become their signature of the marans breeds, as you can see in the picture, These photos are of my chickens and the eggs they produced, not from a book or some website. The Copper Black Marans are new to this country, they originated from a small town in France named Marans, as that is where they get their name. They are very rare in this country as only a handful of breeders have quality stock, and they are almost impossible to find if quality is what your looking for. The Copper Black Marans are a large breed with the hens being all black except for copper like streaks running down their necks. The roosters are a beautiful black with reddish orange feathers as you can see from the pictures. They seem to be very hardy in growing and egg production, as cold weather does not effect their egg production. Males weigh around 10 to 11 lbs. and females at about 8 to 9 lbs. The eggs in the picture are from the beginning of production, I also added a white and normal brown egg for contrast. egg color does vary a little and will lighten and darken as the laying cycle continues, But not to worry, the offspring from these eggs will lay the same extra dark eggs as the parents, as that same dark gene will be present. I will ship you the darkest eggs available at time of shipping. Right now the color is good ranging from 6 to 8 on the Marans color scale as they are in there are in there 7th month of production. My Copper Black flocks are a combination of Davis, Jean and Imported lines, All of my Marans have feathered legs and are bred to the french standard. Mr.Paul Bradshaw of GREENFIRE FARMS even bought some of my eggs last year to add to his own flock, to give you an idea of there quality. My flocks are all NPIP certified, our registration # is KY-189. If for any reason I am unable to fill your order within the time specified, I will give the option of a full refund or waiting a few extra days.

I can brag because my son and I made it. And it has hatched out clutch after clutch and has NEVER had an egg not hatch. But these were my owned BBS Ameraucanas. I really thought ordering eggs off eBay was going to ruin our bragging rights, even though I would have an excuse. You sent me 10 eggs. I candled them at day 3 and again at day 4... they glow red! LOL! How do you see veins in red eggs???? LOL! I asked the marans list what to do and they told me to wait for the air sac on day 8. OK... I have no patience. I candle my eggs almost daily, and yes 100% hatch rate.LOL! So I got them out this morning to candle them and about jumped for joy. There is a shadow in EVERY SINGLE EGG you sent us! All 10 have babies moving in them!!! I LOVE MY INCUBATOR!!! LOL! Thanks Thanks Thanks and I am keeping an eye on your blue coppers!! But not till the little hand made incubator has room again!!! :o) Angie Whitehead Mystic Blues Farm & Ranch San Tan Valley, Arizona Dear dprather1968, Just wanted you to know how thrilled I am with your Marans eggs. 8 of 10 Wheatens will be headed to the hatcher on 3/13. 9 of 9 (!) Black Coppers will be headed as well. Thank you for providing such great quality in your flock and shipping! I'll leave feedback after the hatch but hope I can make your day because you've made mine! Kristin - thecountryhatch HOPE THESES ARE AS GREAT AS ALL OTHERS I HAVE BOUGHT FROM YOU,3 BLUE RIBBONS AND 1 RED AT LAST SHOW........CHUCK Hello David, just wanted to let you know the black copper marans eggs I got from you earlier hatched the other day and 14 out of 14 hatched all big healthy chicks an 9 had feathered legs(real feathery)an growing faster than weeds in a corn field. THANK YOU I WILL BE DOING BUSINESS WITH YOU AGAIN. DEWAYNE David, you sent me a total of 21 eggs and I have 19 chicks that are growing beautifully. The Coppers are extremely vivid. Thank You, Dalton Just wanted to let you know 10 out of the 12 eggs hatched successfully. everyone seems to be doing well, They are a cute bunch. Thanks Michael and Denise at hillsminifarm.com Hi, The babies are hear! A 100% hatch even the extra. These eggs came up in awful weather, just goes to show quality. I am thrilled with my chicks. Your friend, Karen Hi, Just wanted you to know that I got some sport marans eggs from you....That you sent to ohio when it was really cold.with snow on the ground.... and they were shipped and packaged really good....also they are hatching now I got 10 or 12 eggs from you and 10 has already hatched.......will do business with you again..........keep up the great work. Russ Hey, David: I have a good sized poultry and waterfowl operation, and I therefore buy a lot of hatching eggs each season. In fact, I've probably already received more than 60 orders of eggs from various suppliers. First off, I want you to know that of all the eggs I've purchased this year, your eggs are superior. My hatch rate has been consistently between 97 to 100 percent with every batch of your eggs I've hatched. Also, your Black Copper Maran eggs have been larger than others I've seen, as well as uniform in shape, size and shell texture. Of all the eggs I've bought from you, I've never received a cracked, broken, or badly soiled egg. In fact, they are always perfectly packed and each shipment includes some extras. And, once those beautiful eggs hatch, the chicks are even more impressive. Every chick has been robust, healthy, and full of vigor and vitality. In fact, of all the chickens that I've hatched and owned, I'm most proud of the ones I've hatched from your superior line of Black Copper Marans. Therefore, I thought I should write you a note and let you know how pleased I truly am. It's inspiring to me when I find knowledgeable, experienced breeders like you who take such pride in their work. There's no doubt in my mind that top quality eggs and customer satisfaction are of utmost importance to you! When I experience a consistent hatch rate higher than 95 percent, and I hatch such lively, healthy, beautiful chicks, I know without reservation that my egg provider owns and breeds an exceptional flock of chickens. No doubt, you will see me again and again, David, because I am extremely happy and proud of the quality eggs you consistently ship to me. So, I just want you to know how much I appreciate all of the hard work you put into producing one of the best flocks of Black Copper Maran chickens I've ever seen! Thanks again, Gary G. Schneider Henderson, KY 42420 If you need any help, I will be glad to answer any questions you may have. TERMS & SHIPPING Although fertility has been in the 80 to 90% range, I cannot guarantee your success. If you win one of my auctions the eggs will be individually wrapped in bubble wrap and packed in news paper and packing peanuts, I lay the eggs on there side as that is the natural way for them to rest and if the box gets turned upside down during shipping they are still in a natural state. Any questions or special request need to be made before you bid. I will send you fresh and fertile eggs no more than three days old at end of auction, my eggs are collected 2 to 3 times a day, turned twice a day and kept in a claimant controlled room. Once the eggs are in postal care my responsibility is over. There are too many factors between my farm and your residence such as postal handling, weather, human error, the occasional x-ray machine, incubation practices etc. Hatching eggs are a gamble no matter who you get them from and shipping can damage them internally enough to keep them from developing even though no damage can be seen by the eye. Once again I don't make any guarantees for any hatch rates. Feedback needs to be left on the basis of quality of the eggs on arrival and packing. I will provide a 72 hour heat pack upon request, but you need to request it when payment is made. I will combine shipping of any two of my auctions that end in the same day for a $5 to $12 shipping discount depending on how far away you are. If shipping over the weekend is a concern, then you should not bid on any of my auctions that end on a Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, as I do ship Mon thru Friday to insure the freshest eggs possible. I myself have had eggs shipped over a weekend to me and I had just as good hatches with them as any that would have shipped on a Monday, but some folks have the belief that that effects the hatch rate. This is NOT A PRESALE, I accept PAYPAL ONLY. Payment needs to be made at auctions end, so your eggs can ship as soon as possible, usually the next day, but in some rare cases two days. According to EBAY I have to accept E-Checks, but remember, if you pay with an e-check or if you pay late, you will still receive the same eggs that are earmarked for this auction, an e-check will take too long to clear and that will render the eggs infertile and I don't want that for my buyers. The reason for the fast pay, fast ship is that eggs are time sensitive and I want you to receive the freshest eggs possible. If for any reason the eggs can not be shipped within a couple of days you will be given the option of a full refund. SORRY BUT WE CAN NOT SHIP TO HAWAII OR ALASKA. If you are interested and don't have a paypal account, contact me at at dpfarms68@yahoo.com Feedback will not be giving until feedback is received. Feedback should be left upon item arrival. Feedback should never be left on the basis of a hatch, as I can not and do not guarantee hatch rates. IF FOR ANY REASON YOU CAN NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS, THEN PLEASE DON'T BID. Thank you for looking and happy bidding.
