    10-14 day old Black Copper Marans

    Ok, we are at 3 weeks now. There are three that are showing different characteristics. Larger combs and the combs have a red color to them already.

    BCM - 3 weeks now

    So is it the larger comb and the redness in the comb that is the indicator? I ask because I don't want to give away any girls but I hate to hold onto boys for 3 or 4 months and then let them go. Michelle

    BCM - 3 weeks now

    I am so anxious to figure out how many girls I have. I have noticed that I have three out of the 8 BCM that have larger combs and the combs have more red color. I think this is a pretty good indicator of being male. What do you all think? Ignore the ISA brown in the pics. Looks like a boy...

    Here are the new babies

    My babies have arrived to their new home. Let's keep our fingers crossed for at least half girls. Does the feather method, pin tail feather method have any legitimacy to it in BCM?

    French BCM

    Well. Odds would tell me that if I have 8 chicks that I should at least end up with 3 girls. Let's hope so. I am nervous about trying to find homes for the boys.
