Dibs on the others, I guess the blue or black copper??? I'm new to Marans, these will be my first, and I want to see what these eggs are all about.

A trio if you could. And how much for a trio? I'd prefer to stick with one variety if possible. Does it make a difference with the Marans what variety they are relates to how dark the eggs are? Sorry for being Maran ignorant, but honest to goodness, I am! LOL

Yes!! Black Coppers lay the darkest egg.. You can ask for a sample of the egg..Most people will let ya see the egg color if you are buying chicks..
