french copper maran mix???

[davejw]

Please help This is ment to be a french copper maran yet something isnt right

I cant remember where i got this lot of eggs from, It did hatch from a dark red/brown egg & im sure its a she 13 14 weeks old ,Still the white tips on the tip wings ? legs , What cross is she ?

The place i think i got this lot from do keep cockoos marans too is she a cross ?

She looks purebred to me. Nice bird! Those white wingtips will most likely disappear as she gets older.

I never knew they looked so much like Black Star hens.

It will outgrow the white. It looks pure, but isn't a true French Marans because it is clean legged and not feather legged. That is according to standard anyway. I have both clean and feather legged and love them all!

I can actually tell the difference more quickly now that I have owned my own BCMs for a while. They do look really similar when just glancing at them.
