Black Copper Marans Chicks

Our line of Black Copper Marans are bred for temperment and egg color.  They are some of the Friendliest birds on the farm. We do strive to always work on SOP with our flock. These are some of our favorites on the farm.  Black Copper Marans are a docile, large breed chicken. They will lay 150-200 eggs a year.  Black Copper Marans are a dual purpose beed. They are good in hot and cold enviroments. Roosters may need extra care in the colder climates as his large comb is subject to frostbite. 
Originated in France. 
Fantasic for backyard flocks and and or families with children. 
 
Sold as straight run only. 
 
We cannot guarantee that the chicks or hatching eggs that you purchase will lay dark eggs like the parent stock. It is somewhat "luck of the draw" in egg genetics. We are always working on our genetics to darken our egg color, but we have to take care to do justice to the breed standard AND we put temperment above all else due to having small children.
 
**Note- We are currently not offering our Huckleberry Eggers (Black Copper Marans with heavy bloom to make purple appearing eggs) until we feel like they are ready to go as a group. We may occasionally throw one in a large order randomy from time to time.
