🌟 I am honored that my BCM are  Stallings Genetics! 🌟

I will continue to work with Mike’s amazing genetic line to produce exceptional Black Copper Marans with:
✅ Rich, dark egg color
✅ Strong size and conformation
✅ Consistent quality and temperament

Mike’s genetics are known for their excellence, and I’m proud to carry that forward in my breeding program.

PLEASE READ 

PLEASE NO COLOR REQUESTS.  I know everyone wants the darkest and I am very transparent with what I ship. 

Introducing the Chocolate Egg Wonder – the ultimate breed for egg enthusiasts seeking some of the darkest chocolate brown eggs! These Marans are not your average birds. While all BCMs (Black Copper Marans) are known for laying some of the darkest eggs of any breed, achieving those rare, deep dark hues takes precision and dedication.

The key ingredient? The rooster. For sustained dark egg production, you need a rooster that hatched from a dark egg, and it takes years of careful breeding to get that right. Our breeding program ensures only the gentlest, most kind roosters are used, as their temperament is passed down, ensuring a calm and pleasant flock.

Expect eggs that vary from shades of dark brown (around a 7 on the French 1-9 color scale), sometimes with speckles or a deep purplish hue, particularly in the early spring or late fall when the birds are first laying. We can occasionally get a 9, but this is rare. Our birds average 240 large eggs per year, and with their thick, dark shells, these eggs are not only beautiful but also a challenge to hatch, which makes them all the more special.

In addition to their exceptional egg color, these birds are known for their gentle demeanor. The roosters are friendly giants, and the hens are often the first to jump into your lap, eager for a treat. Please note, while we guarantee safe packaging and delivery, we cannot guarantee hatch rates due to the many variables outside of our control.

Product Highlights:

  • Large, dark brown eggs (some with speckles and purplish hues)
  • Approx. 240 large eggs/year
  • 6-8 on the French 1-9 color scale, occasionally 9
  • Calm, friendly roosters and hens
  • Breed known for gentle, giant personalities
  • Eggs are known for their thick, durable shells, making hatching more challenging

    READ BEFORE ORDERING:

    Best of the best!!

    Bought 18 Black Copper Maran hatching eggs in the beginning of May. Perfectly packaged and timely shipped. Excellent customer service and very helpful with answering all my questions. Great quality eggs (dark and speckled) and very clean eggs. She sent 3 extras so 21 total. 18 made it to lockdown, 17 hatched! So blessed to have a great hatch of BCMs (the one that didn’t hatch was shrink wrapped and we weren’t fast enough to save it). I’m a beginner, (this is hatch #2) but I bought a different incubator for the BCMs - so I used the Brinsea Ovation EX and not the Harris Farms Nurture Right 360. Giving all the credit to the fabulous quality hatching eggs from Freshly Picked Chicks, but guessing the incubator helped a lot!!! All the chicks were healthy and great stock! 10/10 recommend Freshly Picked Chicks! Seriously the best of the best!!!
