I need help in locating a breed of chickens that lay very dark brow eggs and a hatchery to purchase them from.

Marans lay beautiful dark eggs. I'm in the UK where R U maybe I could send you some.

The darkest eggs are from the Spanish penedesenca,but those exist only in Spain,so I would recommend barnevelders,here's probably the best choice:

Sand Hill Preservation Center
(319)-246-2299

Ask for a free price list.

I would like to locate some Marans here in the US. Does any one know a source?

I'm trying to import Maran, Welsummer, Red and Buff sussex, and a lot of other breeds from the UK. If you are in the UK and could give me information about regulations I would appreciate it. I know that I can't import directly to the USA but I think that I can go through Canada or Mexico. Any information on this would be appreciated.
