**This listing is for Black/Blue Copper Maran DNA Sexed Chicks**
 
We presently have a Black Copper Maran Rooster OVER Blue Copper Maran Hens, see what that means for you below! Its a great pairing we're quite excited for! 
 
You'll hatch a mix of chicks: primarily Black Copper Marans and Blue Copper Marans, with roughly a 50/50 split, as the black and blue genes mix, resulting in both solid blacks and blues, all carrying that distinctive copper lacing. You won't get "splash" (white with colored lacing) unless you breed two blues together, and you should expect beautiful, dark-brown eggs from the resulting hens. 
Here's the breakdown:
Black Copper Rooster x Blue Copper Hen: This pairing introduces the 'B' (black) and 'b' (blue) alleles.
Possible Chicks:
Black Copper (BB): Chicks inherit black from both parents.
Blue Copper (Bb): Chicks inherit black from one and blue from the other, resulting in the blue-feathered birds.
No Splash: Since you're not breeding blue with blue (or splash), you won't get splash chicks.
Why it works: Black and blue are different expressions of the same gene, so they produce beautiful offspring without diluting the Maran traits, including the dark egg color. 
You're essentially getting a mix of the two most popular Copper Maran colors, ensuring you get gorgeous birds and excellent dark-brown eggs.
