Not blue marans, so what could they be?

My Blue Marans from Ideal were also super dark blue like these

Just stepping in to say that I have had 3 Blue Copper Marans from Ideal. One has feathered feet but the other 2 don't. None of them had copper color but that's hatchery quality for you. They do lay darker eggs. Here are some photos of them as pullets and older.

Yours are so beautiful! I’m really hoping for dark eggs.

Maybe there is hope for mine to be the same! They definitely weren’t what we were expecting but they are very sweet birds.
