Any idea what breeds?

Strange

Maybe Mother Nature does it so they blend in better? Like a deer has white spots at first? I don’t know, it is strange But they’re super cute!

French black copper marans. They do as chicks I raise them.

black copper marans shouldnt be all black though, i thought? The copper represents the gold in the hackles n such n such don't it?

the white fluff is normal, but actual feathers not so much.

Correct! I guess I was referring to the white disappearing. I don’t know if you can see in this picture , but her hackles are copper. And the eggs are so pretty! My eight year old named this one Ninja

This is a young rooster. The colors are gorgeous if you get roo’s out of those chicks.

Mine have always had white wing tips and breast feathers, that have always turned black. But I haven’t seen white on the back like that bird has, so I’m not sure.

I apologize, I’ve never seen white feathers on the backs of my marans. Sorry to maybe get your hopes up. It’s still a beautiful bird though!

Its alright, i honestly dont think they have copper maran in them, as i was told by 6 weeks males will have copper coming in their saddle feathers, and I'm 90% sure i have two roosters, no copper.
