Black Copper Marans Gender?

[v101mp]

I have 3 Black Copper Marans that are just about 6 weeks old. Any guesses on their genders? Also, one of them is completely black...eyes, beak, wattles, and all. Anyone ever see this happen with a BCM?

I think the all black one is an Ayam Cemani, maybe pullet
The two Marans look like a pair

The black one is an Ayam Cemani, I believe.
In the first picture I think I see a pair. Get better pictures of them, please.

There is a gene that makes chickens all black, the Ayam cermani is an example, I’m not sure how common it is in BCM but the bird in the first pick with the bigger comb looks like a cockerel

The gene is called fibromelanosis.

I will try and get better pics. They are camera shy and don’t like the paparazzi!
