Help me with this breed!?

Looks like a BCMarans.

Initially that is what I thought but wasn't sure because he has a light cream or tan and not a lot of copper at this stage. He is about 11 or 12 weeks old.

Yes, they do offer olive eggers and I believe Easter eggers and Ameracauna.

I'm betting he is an Olive Egger. Can't be a Marans with that beard.

Oh, I didn’t see the beard. I bet you’re right!

Thank you for your input! I have never had a Maran but was hoping I would have one with the colored egg layer assortment. Haven't figured out all of the rest of them yet. Could be they gave me a rooster along with that assortment. I will take him no matter what he is! I will check his toes tomorrow, too!

Someday I will know what to look for with different breeds. Just learning and love learning from all of you!

Does it have extra toes? What color are it's legs? I still think it looks like a dark faverolle rooster.

He has 4 toes!

The black pullet in front in the first photo looks an awful lot like my one Ameraucana pullet

We got her from Runnings and they were supposed to be black Australorp but who knows! Ameraucanas confuse me. It seems like they do not all look alike?

I’m not a huge expert but I know a lot of the time Ameraucanas get confused with Easter Eggers.. although it seems like that girl doesn’t have a peacomb the closer I look at it (plus I’m sure mine has something mixed in as no beard or muffs either), so she seems like a black Australorp to me.

Your OE boy is handsome btw!!
