Do they have a barred or cuckoo variety?

Not that I have ever seen, although there are new colors popping up all the time.

(I know this is not a good pic but it's the only one I have right now) this is one of my hens. I was asking bc she is barred but muted and has feathers on her feet but I'm not sure what breed she is. Maybe Marans. She does lay dark brown eggs but not as dark as some of the Marans eggs I have seen.

^ She is probably a cuckoo Marans, their eggs aren't nearly as dark as other varieties.

That's what I thought but I wasn't sure. Thanks!

Yes, it's hard to tell by the pic. Does she have feathered feet? Of course, the French Standard for Marans calls for feathered feet as well. She looks like she has a single comb & Brahmas are supposed to have pea combs though. Did you buy her as a Brahma?? She's cute either way.
