Mystery Marans .. Breed? (Hoovers Hatchery)

[BrahmasMama02]

My goodness, they're so cute!
I just got some FBCM last week.

Yeah would say they are FBCM , but one of them has barring coming in and has a larger comb

 

[BrahmasMama02]

Yes, That's a beautiful little blue copper.
I need to get some now, you make me jealous. Lol!

And they are my moms so I’ll only have them for a few more weeks (all the marans )

You're going to love the Sappire Gems. They are an outstanding breed!
Same for the Wyandottes.

Possibly but there was no white dot on its head. If it’s a hen it’s most definitely a French cuckoo maran .

I heard that sapphire gems are good layers so I’m elated

Huh, strange..
I wonder what it could be?

If its an MMM it's probably a cockerel. I'll @ you in another thread I started.
