Copper Black Marans

Of our six cheeps, I'm pretty sure we've got two cockerels and four hens. Two of the cheeps are bigger than the other four and have real coppertops. I've had alook at some photos of adult birds, and the hens are black, with the cockerels having the copper head and collar.

I think we'll keep two hens and one cockerel and sell a trio, once they get (much) bigger.
