Mystery Marans .. Breed? (Hoovers Hatchery)

[BrahmasMama02]

Hello,

I recently purchased Seven marans from the Maran assortment box at my local Hoovers hatchery dealer. Four of them appear to be black copper marans/ or midnight majesties. One of them having darker feathered feet than the others. The other chicks I’m not so sure (3). They have feathered feet as well. I’m not sure what kind of marans these chicks are.

I’ll add pictures two black ones and a grey one !

Thank you!

Black copper marans and Blue Copper marans is my guess

Hello sharing pic of our bcm (blue) as a chick (sorry they aren’t great) and one of her fully grown so you can see how she coloured out (in the middle). I have two others that are also blue but have copper running through neck feathers - they’re the two darker chicks in the 1st pic.

They are so cute! I wish they all were blue!!

How have they feathered out?

These are two of the black marans which I think one is a cockerel . And I’m leaning more midnight majesty Maran with the black ones .
