Please me. Is this a breed?

I average about 5-6/ day. I've got 3 that lay pretty decent eggs mostly #6. And my darkest is around a #7 from Joannie my head hen but she's sitting on 9 of her daughter Angels eggs currently so not laying.

Maybe their all 5-6, I'm not too good with the colors yet. Hoping to darken them up some more by hatching Angels eggs (her coming from Joannie)
If Kong came from a dark egg, it should.

Edited to add.... I'm throwing all these #'s out, you might not know what I'm referring to.
Marans have a color chart they must adhere to in the breed SOP (standard of perfection). The reason I mentioned earlier in the thread that if they don't lay at least a #4, they are not considered a Marans.
This is the shade card..

By continually breeding from your darkest layers to your roos that come from dark eggs you will continue producing dark eggs. In theory....
