Cuckoo Marans -- Upcoming Hatches

Marans are such a fun, calm breed to have in your flock.  They usually have feathery feet and lay dark brown eggs, but the Cuckoo Marans does not have the feathery feet.  Instead, they are clean-legged.  They look almost similar to a barred rock with slight differences in the black and white coloring. 

Marans are fast growing chickies that are relatively quiet.  They are extremely hardy and will thrive in almost all climates.  The darkest brown are from the French Black Copper Marans, but the Cuckoo Marans lay a dark brown egg also.   It is fun to have a variety of Marans because of the different bird coloring.  

Marans are notoriously difficult to sex.  Our guarantee on this breed is only 75% accuracy.  Please take that into account with the quantities ordered, and have a plan for how to rehome any roosters.
