the black copper marans I've had were freaking MEAN. From two different sources, all mean. The roosters were so mean we had to kill them, I had two spares I kept together and one killed the other one!.  I sold two of the hens and the lady called me and told me one was crowing and beating everything else up.  

Mine are MUCH less social than my Production Reds. I get mauled going in the coop and can tell who the Marans are... they will be standing in the corner farthest away from me. As much trouble I went through driving all over the state to get the damn things they could at least show they like me lol
