I think Oscar is better looking.

I think Oscar is better looking.

I agree...I'm biased tho.

All other chicken breeds are inferior to Marans.

Cracker is a mixed breed - Marans momma and EE papa - an extended black with red leakage EE -- so Cracker is basically an Olive Egger!

He's about twice the size of Oscar lol

I need to get a photo of Wellington, the Welsummer -- coloring exactly like a maran, just yellow legs.

Kinda makes Oscar not stand out so much here in the pasture haha
