5 week old Black Copper Maran

[kelsienorman]

Hi everyone.

I have a 5 week old black copper Maran. S/he is bigger than the rest and has started getting wattles but comb is pretty pale.

Any guesses on the sex?

Looks like a pullet to me.

It’s still early but I don’t see anything that makes me think it’s a cockerel. My cockerel marans had larger combs and wattles than that by 3 weeks old. So I guess pulllet for now

Pullet for now, update in a couple of weeks.

Looks like a pullet, but it’s early. Update in two to three weeks if you’re still wondering.

Hi, new here and new hen ma! I just received these two copper marans from a local feed store. I’m 100% sure one is a roo. Just curious if this one is a roo or pullet. I believe they are about 3-4 weeks possibly. What do you guys think?

Too early to tell for sure, but the comb looks small and pale, so that's a good sign for a pullet.

Too early to tell for sure, but they look exactly like my Black Copper Maran pullets!

The one with stripes/bars on the wings is not a BCM as marking are incorrect.. Should look more like the other one.

Maybe it's another variety.. IF it is a Marans.. always said with the S at the end even when discussing a single individual.. after the region in France from which they originate.
