My 5 chickens just turned 5and 6 weeks old yesterday any thoughts about the gender? There is one French Copper Black Maran, one Blue star, one Speckled Sussex, one Easter Egger and one Olive Egger.

Below are the photos of each!

This is Nyx the French Black Copper Maran that I had a made a pervious post of when they were about 2 weeks old. Now they’re 6 weeks and Nyx is the one I’ve been most uncertain about as to the gender.

All of them are very nice and calm, I’ve never seen any of them attack each other other than the occasional peck. Nyx is extremely curious though compared to Duchess and Waffle who are very skittish. If I need to add any other photos let me know and I apologize for the slightly long post!

I'm not super familiar with all those breeds but I have a couple Speckled Sussex (one named Duchess too haha) and I think that one is a cockerel. I've raised a few BCMs as well and would say that Nyx is a pullet. The rest I think are pullets but I'm not confident in my knowledge of those breeds so don't quote me lol
