    Wheaten Maran

    So I bought 2 doz Chicks at an auction two weeks ago and all they said was they were wheaten maran. Most of them have leg feathers but several of them do not. Is that common or have I been duped? Is this a breed you have to cull heavily to keep the standard? I’ve never owned this breed before.
