Cuckoo Marans

Cuckoo Marans are a very rare breed of chicken that has black and white banded feathers similar in appearance to a barred rock. The breed originated in Marans, a town on the Atlantic coast, near La Rochelle (France). In the 12th century, with the marriage of Henri of Plantagenet, Duke of Anjou, who became Henri II of England, to Aleanor of Aquitaine a part of the south west of France was brought under English rule as part of her dowry The English domination lasted two centuries. So, English ships often stopped over at La Rochelle (near Marans) and unloaded fighting cocks which were crossbred to local hens, ultimately resulting in this unique breed. The males are lighter colored than females. The Maran's eggs are a distinctive dark chocolate brown color.
