Marans With Featherless Legs?

I have a gorgeous Midnight Majesty Marans (Hoover's name for their Marans Mix) and she has clean dark slate legs. The breed standard stated that some have feathered legs and some don't, so it's not a definite either way. I purchased her from TSC and she had clean featherless legs as a day old sexed pullet. I can't comment on her eggs as she hasn't started laying yet (hatch date of Aug 22, 2019). Maybe this is an option?

I will look into that! Thank you!
 
If you just liked feathered legs for the same reason I did or thought I did you be surprised. I got two breeds last year that I had feathered legs but my daughter really really wanted to get them I imagined Mud poop stuck on them etc. etc. but to my surprise there foot feathers are usually clean. I don't know how they do it.

The main reason I dislike feathered legs is due to the appearance. I have a bantam Cochin, and although I adore her, I can confidently say (behind her back, of course) that I prefer the look of my other chickens.
