“I’m so bummed out!
Was excited and looking forward to having some darker eggs, but my BCM just started laying and the eggs are SUPER light! Barely any darker than the eggs my salmon faverolle lays. I almost thought she was laying 2 eggs a day because of the similarity in color.
She’s a beautiful bird otherwise, but I’m disappointed, especially with the description MPC has for this breed.”
“I ordered 2 female black copper marans. Both arrived alive. Both are healthy and not aggressive. I put 3 stars because this breed is a hit and miss with mypetchicken. I've ordered many black copper marans through mypetchicken and only 1 out of 8 had the chocolate egg laying description. In all, this breed has always been a good layer laying every other day and has never been flighty or aggressive. Just don't expect to receive a chocolate laying egg layer from mypetchicken.”
“Bought two copper maran chicks about 1.5 years ago. One died from a hawk. The second won 1st in breed at our county fair. Decent layer. Definite slow down in laying in winter. Good egg color.”
We are so sorry to hear about your loss, we know that is never easy. What an honor to win 1st place, she must be a beauty! We would love to see a picture of her. Thank you for sharing!
