Mahonri he does sorta look the same, but Bucky has yellow feet and beak (look at 2nd pic. on the first page) GC Marans have white feet.
He' a 1st gen. cross between a Barred Rock Roo x a RIR, prod. red, or NH hen. I've had quiet a few of this cross. This was the first cross that the Delaware was eventually developed from. They used "sports" from crosses of BR roo x NH hens. This is why one might think that its a Dellie cross. I'm gonna hatch some more of this cross this coming hatch season the hens from this cross lay some enormous eggs and look like a Cuckoo Marans with yellow feet.
