Blue Copper Marans
Chicks, Pullets, and Eggs
French Blue Copper Marans are a striking bird with all the traits of the French Black Copper Maran, They also lay a beautiful chocolate brown egg. The great thing about these birds is that you can run blacks and blues together and still have purebred blacks and purebred blues. The blue color gene is a variant of the black gene. Blue is a dilution gene it dilutes out the black to a gray. When you breed blue on blue you will get some splash Marans. One of the most often asked question about our Blue Copper Marans "Are their egg as dark the Black Copper Marans?" Yes they are. On the Marans egg color chart we get great color!
Our French Blue Copper Marans produce an egg that is just as dark as our Black Copper Marans.

Chicks are sold straight run.
Eggs in the wooden bowl are a mix from our French Black copper, Blue Copper and Splash Marans.
