I noticed something funky looking on my only Cuckoo Marans legs one day and thought it was weird and kinda gross, honestly. I figured I should probably keep an eye on them because it just looked so gnarly. Stupid me, I didn't realize she was growing freaking feathers on her legs!! They looked SO weird at first. So, she was sold as simply a Cuckoo Marans at our local TSC and because I was new to this, I didn't know much and got multiples just for the fun of it! Turns out, only one of 3 was actually a Cuckoo Marans; the other two were BR's. Here's my question; is there a difference between a Black Cuckoo Marans and a French Cuckoo Marans or are they the same thing? Also, do strictly French Cuckoo Marans grow leg feathers? She was stubborn as could be this morning and didn't feel like having her picture taken but I did get a couple of shots of her feet before she took off and hid behind a tree. What say you, BYC'ers? French Cuckoo Marans if she has feathery legs or...? I surely don't know.
