Black Copper Marans were one of our very first breeds when we started keeping chickens. We have loved each one of these regal birds for their sweet personalities and contributions to the egg basket rainbow. In 2023, we were lucky enough to secure a starter breeding flock from Frank May's award-winning line of birds. We also hatched some chicks from Mike Stalling's legacy line of Marans to add genetic diversity and complete our breeding flock. We were able to add some lovely hens and pullets from The Crafty Coop in 2024 when they stepped back from their work with BCMs, and we are thrilled to start 2025 in full-force!

We are already looking forward to offering these amazing birds and hatching eggs as we begin chasing those deep dark-chocolate eggs while working towards Standard of Perfection.
