Barred Rocks and Cuckoo Marans look identicle???

[Fred's Hens]

Isn't it true that if a hen cannot lay at least a 4, it cannot even be considered an Marans?

Yes that is true​

Cuckoo Marans should have sparsely feathered legs IF their bred to the French Standard.

I will check the leg colors in the morning. The girls have gone off to bed and it seems like a good idea to me. The barring patterns sure looks the same to me at first glance. My Barred has a sweet personality and she is the first to talk to me as well as greet me.

Here are one of each:
Marans on left. Barred on right. Most likely hatchery quality.
