Black Copper Maran

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.

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.

Please see our policy for Shipped Hatching Eggs.

Local pick-up only.  We apologize, but we do not ship chicks at this time.

Each season we may have some juvenile cocks or pullets available as we continue to develop our breeders.  We will post availability in our store as they become available.  Feel free to inquire.
