5 week old black copper marans and idea of gender??

[ChicksterJo]

I'll guess that they're all pullets. The roo I had, had way bigger wattles and comb than those 4 and they were much pinker. The two girls, not so much.

Pullets. By 4 weeks you would see more pinking or redding. I have some that are only 3 weeks and they have a comb doubled that size and its very pink.

the three you can see are pullets

agree all the way. Marans roos are REALLY good at letting you know they're roos early on with red combs... all pullets there

Thanks to all who responded. I sure hope the pullet guessers are correct as our county codes people don't let us have roos..sure would hate to have to get rid of any of them.

All pullets!

Looks like pullets to me. My BCM roo had a huge red comb by that age. My pullets looked like yours do now.

If you're in the county, I'm all but positive you can have a rooster barring any HOA rules to the contrary. In the city proper I think roosters are banned. Check your location and laws before giving anyone away!!

3 pullets an done maybe
watch the one in the back right corner of the last pic might be a sneaky one. But I dont think so.

I have three 4-week old marans... (black copper, blue copper and splash). They look a LOT like yours, and I'm keeping fingers crossed they're all pullets, so I'm wondering if you could report back and let me know if your four ended up being pullets?!
