The Cuckoo Maran chicken breed was first developed in Marans, France back in the mid-1800s. It’s now considered a very rare breed but has gained major popularity in the U.S. on both farms and in backyards due to its gentle temperament and ability to lay beautiful, dark brown eggs. Cuckoo Marans look a lot like Barred Plymouth Rock chickens, but they have subtle differences in their feather patterns that set them apart.

Although Cuckoo Marans will quickly get your attention with their beautiful looks, their true beauty lies in their personalities. As Cuckoo Maran chicks mature, they become very active and enjoy foraging when allowed to roam. For the most part, this breed gets along well with other chickens, though the roosters tend to be a little aggressive. They make a great addition to any farm looking to diversify its egg color choice by adding their dark brown eggs to your cartons!

As we’ve stated, the main draw to Cuckoo Marans chickens, despite their status as a rare breed, is the fact that they can produce beautiful and unique eggs. Cuckoo Maran hens are capable of laying over 180 dark brown eggs each year. Additionally, this breed is considered dual-purpose, serving as an equally good selection for meat production. While hens typically grow to be 7 pounds, roosters can reach up to 8 pounds, making a heavy addition to your table.
