Cuckoo Marans or Barred Rock?

[Flock Master64]

Barred rock for sure

 

[Jedwards]

Yeah I'm second guessing also but either way it's a nice looking hen

 

[Jenna14Chicken]

I"m pretty sure that's a Rock. I see her and the Easter egger. Can you get a pic of the bird in the back? I'm wondering if she's a Welsummer.

The one in the back looked like a Hatchery RIR/production red to me. Sometimes chickens just lay darker colored eggs. I have some breeds that aren't 'supposed' to lay dark eggs that do, and some that aren't 'supposed' to lay light brown/cream eggs that do....It just depends on the individual hen. As long as it's the same color it's supposed to be(I.e. supposed to lay brown and lays brown, even if the shade is lighter/darker than normal), what does it matter?

She is a barred rock.

Barred Rock. The eggs are not especially dark.

I think the eggs are coming from the red hen. RIR lay darker eggs. I believe your barred bird is a Plymouth rock.

Barred rocks and Plymouth rocks are the same thing

Here are some images of my red and all three together.
