BLACK MARANS
Black Marans are the most recently accepted variety in the US, being admitted in 2019. They are growing increasingly popular as many claim they lay the darkest eggs of all, and are easier to show than the colored varieties. Their plumage is glossy black with green sheen from head to toe, with dark slate legs and black beaks. Eyes are reddish bay.
The full, detailed description for Black Marans is in the American Standard of Perfection which may be purchased here:
