Is this a Marans?

[TheHenWhisperer]

I bought this chicken at a sale and was told it was a Marans. Just looking for some verification as to if it really is. Thanks in advance!

Any help is appreciated

Thanks for the help! How old do y'all think she may be? I've had her for a week and no eggs yet.

Yes i think she is a cuckoo Maran x

You will have some gorgeous dark brown eggs, when she settles and starts to lay, one of the best flavoured eggs. xx

Barred Rock - looks like to me.

Is there a notable difference between the cuckoo maran..barred rock ...dominique??

Plymouth rock have slightly darker legs, think she is a maran
