Marans.....not sure of variety

Anyone?

looks like they are a partridge color maybe someone is working on this as a color??

Ok, so apparently this is a recessive wild gene that is in the Wade Jeane line. Now the question is what to do with it lol. Im not adding this bunch to my other [insert color here] copper marans but would it be worth breeding this quad and starting a line on them or can I get other varieties through breeding using these as my parent base.

I have the exact same chicks coming from a FBCM trio.... Same line.... I have separated them to try to get silver and gold salmon. May take a while but that's the fun. I read on here that Bev Davis is also working on a Crele line of Marans now too???... Who knows, we may have something special.... I so whish I could view a picture of hers to see the standard she is going for....

Sounds like we're both going to have some fun because I love doing this kind of stuff.
