Black Copper Maran

Black Copper Maran (Continental)

The Marans breed originated in France, in marshy areas close to the Atlantic coast. The breed is named after the historic port town of Marans. Marans have been imported to the USA in small numbers for many years now, probably beginning around the time that soldiers returned to the States after World War II. The American standard adheres to the French standard calling for lightly feathered shanks and toes.

Appearance

Marans are best known for their large, russet brown eggs. This is a defining characteristic of the Marans breed, so selection for egg color and size should never be neglected. Physically the Marans is a medium-sized bird with the character of a rustic farm hen, giving an impression of solidity and strength without being coarse. The legs are lightly feathered.  Eye color is bright and clear in all varieties, never darkening into brown nor paling into yellow or pearl.

Our Breeding Lines

We are very proud to have our breeding lines originating from only the best in the U.S.  Our breeding stock originates from Two Bitts Farm in Newnan, GA whose birds consistently win at APA shows across the U.S.  Following in their footsteps, ours have also made it to Champion Row.


While we do not breed strictly for egg color, more for adherence to standard, our birds lay lovely deep brown eggs nonetheless, as they should.
