Cuckoo Maran or Barred Rock??

[micheleOOF]

Hey!
I brought home this beautiful girl a couple days ago. I was told she is a cuckoo Maran. After reading more on the breed I'm not too sure if I was told the truth! Not that it would really matter because she is so sweet. What are your thoughts and how old do you think she is? Her name is Henrietta

I think Henrietta's a barred rock. Cuckoo marans have more of a chocolate color than black like barred rocks and from what I can see in the picture she looks more black. I'd say she looks like she's at least 3-4 months old.

My Cuckoo Marans laid very dark eggs, so you can wait and see.

Wrong skin color for Marans. Barred Rock or a barred mixed breed (but neither parent was Marans).
