French Black Maran - roo or hen?

[Ibabz2]

Hello! I got this little cutie as a hatchling and they have grown SIGNIFICANTLY faster than all the other babies I've had previously. Born June 4th. I'm hoping this baby is a hen but given his leg thickness and coloring I'm thinking it may be a roo. Very sweet temperament. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Definite cockerel.

How old is the marans? Looking like a roo

Agree. That's a big comb for his age.

Just realized you included the hatch date
Definitely a roo for that age

Thank you for the responses! He is about 4 weeks old now but grew quite quickly!

Slow growing, definite little cock, I have one. Except mines 20x older lol! He's like four or five years old now, maybe even six, I dunno. He belongs to my little brother, his name is Toothless!

I guess I will just say I agree with everyone else, he is indeed a "he"
