black copper maran chick

I'm not sure what you're looking for. It would seem that those in the know believe it's an Olive Egger hen from a Marans/Legbar cross. She looks female to me but I'm not an expert.

Pullet. And looks like Marans/Cream Legbar cross.

She's gorgeous...and I say "she" with about 90% certainty.

How did I look at the comb and not see the crest? lol I'd wager that someone was working on Olive Eggers, perhaps using legbar genetics.

X2. It will be interesting to see what color eggs she lays. I'm guessing she could have a CCL mother and a cuckoo marans father.

here's some updated pics I'm still not convinced those tail feathers look male what you think?

 

[Rowsdower]

How old is she now?

 

[tomcatvmp]

about 15- 16 weeks

 

[Rowsdower]

Definitely a girl. And it looks like our egg color mystery could be solved soon.

Absolutely a pullet.
