Relatively speaking, the Marans breed is new to the US. The neither the APA nor the ABA accept them as yet

They have become increasingly popular largely in part to the lovely dark brown or reddish brown egg color.

Marans (pronounced "Maran" without the s) are originally a French breed. The French version is feather legged; the

English version is clean legged. Both the French and English types as well as a number of other varieties (color & pattern) representing a number of different bloodlines are found in the US.

Egg color can also vary greatly between different bloodlines lines.

While we've worked with other varieties and lines in the past, we're concentrating on exceptional egg color at this time. We're working with French (feather legged) birds in Black Copper, Blue and Blue Birchen. We're working with two distantly separate bloodlines: one from Bev Davis and the other from Wade Jeane.
