bantam cornishx StD Black copper Maran ,yep lil x big it can happen.
 
I ditched the marans,i kept "Ugly"
Didn't like any of the maran crosses.
The best crosses to date involve barred rocks.
I thought the Marans may add hybrid vigor ,but on the pullets of this cross now i will breed back to a unrelated Standard dark cornish.

You can get hybrid vigor from any cross. Even the same breed will exhibit hybrid vigor if the pairs come from different lines and locations. The farther the better
 
So you were able to get the roaster white cornish to lay ,,then get those outstanding birds out of a Dark Cornish rooster ?thats a great bunch of chickens.
