That one doesn't seem to have as big of a comb, but again, they are still way too young to say for sure.
do u have a pic of ur hatch?I think you've got pullets. See my BCM hatch below to see what a male looks like against females at about 4 to 5 weeks of age.
And yes, French Marans have feathered legs...properly feathered is outside of leg down outside toe. Only American Marans are not feathered leg. The French lay the darker eggs.
So, right now, I think you've got 2 FBCM females...watch the top one....if that is male, that comb will really take off in the next week. (I knew roo with FBCM at 2 weeks...it was that noticeable). But some of the girls will be a bit precocious with comb size, but will remain pale yellow until POL. The males will get large yellow combs, often by 2 or 3 weeks of age, then turn red by 6 weeks of age.
