I I really don't think there's a connection, since there doesn't seem to be a pattern with who lays the darker egg, I think it's more on the strain of the bird. It is possible that the tendency for mossy birds to lay dark eggs comes from someone ONLY breeding for dark egg, and then forgetting...

Over melanized Marans will not show enough copper, mossy marans with show too much copper, and has copper all over the body.

Thank you! I'm just hoping she doesn't get anymore copper, all mossiness, and white is gone.

Thank you! She's the best looking one so far. Hahahaha, I got her from a guy named Dave! Good luck on your birds! Pics?

Here's a good pic of one of my pullets

The rooster would need a lot of feathering to make sure that the offspring had enough

Chick 4 definitely has potential! Looks like an ameraucana.

1Pullet 2Roo 3Roo 4Roo Pullet is fine, wouldn't use rooster three, and the other two need to grow out before you can tell who's best.

Probably a EE mixed with a single combed breed. maybe a BCM

Looks like a mix

Well, my two younger pullets have moulted any mossy, or white feathers they had, their legs feathers are uniform, and their coloring is perfect! One has a wider tail than the other, and is slightly heavier, so I'm hoping for good things in her offspring! Pics soon!

It takes a while for the eyes to darken to the right color, it should darken as he ages.

Never asked to be honest, Got new stock this year though, better birds, and yeah, really nice guy.

Just sharing my experience, and the ones with lot's of white never had less color than the others, and I meant the overall amount was more than the females, maybe that's just in my strain. Didn't show up quick and heavy., just could tell who was getting it, and who wasn't...

Yeah, with the pullets, they looked identical, but one has a lot of different traits than the other, but you can usually tell by five weeks who has the most copper.

Every time I've hatched, or bought chicks, the ones with the most white on them ended up being roosters, worked for me!

A pea mixed with a single can sometimes look like this, I have a couple. It is probably the lighting, as well as in some birds it takes a while for the earlobe to change color
