Description:
These beautiful, rare birds lay a medium-brown egg with extra-dark speckles. Marans make wonderful pets, too - they are hardy, calm and quiet, and bear confinement well. Most Marans have lightly feathered legs, too, making them very pretty! They are said to be good foragers without being TOO destructive to your garden.

I got two blue splash marans, Luna and Twila. Luna is a gorgeous pale lilac color and they're both beautiful 😍

Our 2 little splash's are soooooo cute. I’ve read all the positive reviews of how great their personalities are, very much looking forward to seeing how our girls develop.

We're so happy that your babies are doing well. Thank you for writing a review and attaching a photo of your sweet babies with their mama! The Blue Splash Marans is one of my favorite breeds. Not only are they beautiful, they're calm and sweet and good layers. We wish you much happiness with these babies and let us know if we can help in any way!

I ordered a mixed group of five in June. They are now 19 weeks old. The BSM “Lily” is definitely eye candy! She is so beautiful! She is, however, the least friendly and most flighty of the group. She has 1-2 feathers on her feet …. And she is the smallest of the five. She’s pretty, but I would not chose this breed again. I would love to attach a photo but I don’t know how.

We're sorry that your Blue Splash Marans did not meet your expectations. Generally they are very docile and sweet as well as fairly fluffy and good layers of a nice sized brown, often speckled egg. We hope that although she is not exactly as large as expected she'll still be a productive layer for you. We will reach out in a separate communication regarding your photos.

This chick was the sweetest of the batch, but unfortunately never really perked up after arriving and passed after a few days. She was a singer and would sit and trill all the time. I definitely want to try this breed again in the future.

We are so sorry to hear that you lost any of your babies! We do not see a report from you regarding your little one as she was covered under our Live Arrival Guarantee for 48 hours after their arrival. We will be in contact with you by separate communication as we want to make this right for you!

Was very cute but sadly arrived weak and died within 2 days despite rigorous nursing care. I know it happens sometimes but I was super bummed.

We're so sorry to hear of the passing of your Blue Splash Marans. There is a note of her as weak upon arrival, but we do not have a report of her passing. We are following up with you in a private email to make this right for you.

The process was quick and easy. All 4 of my girls got here safely and are doing well the first week in. They are all curious but my Black Copper Marans are so friendly and love to sleep in my hands or use them as a perch.
My blue splash are curious but more on the skittish side but still super sweet.

Your little ones sound so adorable! We are so very happy all are doing so well and that they are bringing joy to your backyard! As is often the case, our flock members will have their own little personalities and your Blue Splash may be a bit more timid or is just too busy checking out her surroundings and does not want to be interrupted. With some gentle coaxing with treats and soft voices, she will likely come around and want to join in with your Black Coppers - then they both will be vying for your attention! Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns any time, we are happy to help!
