I got this girl (on the far left) a few days ago and can’t tell if she’s a barred rock or a cuckoo maran I was told barred rock but found a really dark egg and my hatchery maran has never layed as dark and my better quality maran hasn’t layed yet.

It has yellow legs which is correct for a Barred Rock. Cuckoo Marans should have white skin. Your Marans may have started laying or the hatchery one could have held onto the egg longer causing it to be darker
