picture of mahogany color

I agree with Blisschick....I think it is due to the color pigment of deep red in color would consider as "mahogany"

It all depends on what custom "detailing" you want in the mahogany birds...some are solid mahogany and others have black detailing on their feathers.....

Even the Speckled Sussex have some mahogany feathering tipped with black and white colors.

As for the Mahogany Faverolles, Sandhill Preservation has them. Not all of the male chicks will come out looking like that, some will be lighter than others.

The mahogany faverolles I have seen are like a wheaton color. The hens are like the salmon faverolles and the cocks are like the BBR color pattern. Mahogany is also used to describe the deep red in buckeyes, RIR, and some others in the APA standard of perfection.
