Anyone have any photos of these two marans offspring?

Aren't they the same thing?

Very similar lol i belbelievee BCM's hens are more blue tinted and carry the darker egg of the marans. I know the fcm roo of my friends does not have a feather on foot like my bcm hen. Lol maybe clean legged and feather legged classes?

They have French, cuckoo and black copper marans, where i reside

The French Standard calls for lightly feathered legs. Maybe she has the British standard?

From what I understand, French and Black copper are the same things.
