I bought 3 pullets awhile ago that are now 34 weeks old. One is supposed to be a Cuckoo Maran (the other two are an Ameraucana a silver-laced barnvelder; I also have an older EE that lays very pale tan eggs). Got my first two eggs from them yesterday and wasn't sure 100% percent sure who had laid among the barnvelder, CM, and EE (she hasn't laid in awhile with the short daylight), but today I heard the CM "announcing" that she had laid, and sure enough, there was one (warm) egg in the coop. I'm thrilled she's finally laying; the only problem is, it sure doesn't look like a Cuckoo Maran egg to me (photo attached).
Do their eggs get darker over time, or was I mis-led as to the breed? Physically, she looks like a CM.
Thanks!
