Black Copper Marans discussion thread

[mamatink7]

Well decision is made: our 12 wk old BCM is definitely a roo. I thought it was a bad thing but we decided he's great in our flock, already protecting the girls and warning them when people are coming.
Anything ya'll can tell us about having a roo in the midst of 19 girls? This is our only BCM
(Today we had a catastrophe-waterer somehow tipped & 2 in of water mixed with the mess; girls are getting baths today-- so I'll show pics again when things get cleaned up later)

Is there a forum just for Marans in general, not a specific color or type?
