Do all Marans lay dark eggs?

[SnootyHen]

My mystic marans is laying a light brown egg. It's a shade lighter than the wyandotte's eggs. I thought they laid dark brown eggs. Is that not true or is she maybe not full marans? She's 6.5 months old and has been laying for a little over a month now.

Not all maran varieties lay the dark brown eggs. Black copper lay the darkest and other varieties tend to lay lighter eggs. Mystics also aren't full maran, they are half barred rock.

Thanks! That makes sense now.
