    Blue or black maran?

    I have this young cockerel BBS Maran. He is about 7 weeks old. At first I was pretty certain he was going to be black but as he grows he still has some grey feathering. Is this little guy blue or black? He hatched with both blue and splash marans from the same trio but I’m not sure what color...

    Australorp? Maran? Other?? What is she...

    This is Poppy. I thought she was a Black Australorp when we got her, but I have since gotten another Black Australorp and she looks nothing like Poppy. I’m hoping she is a Maran but there’s been some debate. She has always been almost entirely black except for her chin/chest, black feet and...

    TSC Mystery - What breed?

    So I purchased some chicks from TSC last season. Both are laying at the moment, however they appear to be different breeds. They were sold as "cuckoo Marans".

    New chicken, stressed from travel?

    I would really appreciate help regarding a new chicken my partner bought me two days ago. It was sold as a 17-19 week old copper black maran pullet. It looks cross bred to me, from the photos I have seen online... also the neck feathers are pretty pointy, but it doesn’t have obvious saddle...
