That is good to know. I put my Ameracuana rooster in with the cuckoo Marans hens & was hoping for Olive eggers. If not my next try would be my Black Copper Marans rooster over my Ameracuana hens. Does it matter?...... I was told by a breeder to use my BCM rooster to cover my Ameracuana hens. Genetically, does it matter?Karen in Turlock California
Hey Karen I use a FBCM roo over my girls=olive eggs

Thanks that is good to know. I have been reading some confusing info on roosters not contributing to egg color on the Marans thread but I think they squashed that ides. I am still reading. I will give it a try. The hard part is going to be wairing til the new girls get to POL & I get to see them dang eggs......LOL
