Black Cuckoo Maran - which gender?

[HeatherIhn]

Hi All!

I am new to this chicken business, and 2 months ago I got 6 baby chicks. There are a couple that I question if they're cockerels or pullets, and I'm hoping you guys can help me out.

This is Margaret Hatcher, our Black Cuckoo Maran. She is by far the largest of them all, is the one to call the other girls in for bedtime, and her comb is slightly bigger than the rest. However, it is not very red nor is it as prominent as other photos I've seen of BCM roosters.

I can try to provide more photos later if this one isn't good enough.

Crossing my fingers...

Cute name; and she can keep it, for Margaret Hatcher is a pullet. )

Yes. Looks like it to me also. And by the way,

WEeeee heeee! That's great news to hear, thanks Everyone! I guess she's just our little basketball player.

Will go get a proper intro now, but thanks for helping me!

Pullet.

I hope I'm wrong...I trust your guys' judgement but "her" growth is just so different from the rest, and her comb is much larger than the rest too
