My MMM do not have a blackish crown, it’s red. I suspect it may be a mix with a black astralorph (sp) and one with black crowns.View attachment 3860997
She was supposed to be a Mystic Marans (correction, Midnight Majesty Marans) from Hoovers Hatchery. I have 5 16 week old pullets in this coop and at least 1 is laying.
The colors and shapes of the eggs are distinct enough that I suspect 2. However, none of the girls look old enough. The two Speckled Sussex are just starting to pink up. The Marans are darker, but these eggs are much too light, not even a 1 on the Marans egg scale.

The girl pictured above has black eyes, no feathered feet, a black beak, black comb, and her wattles have just a hint of pink.
Could she be something other than Marans? Could she be my layer?
