    :rolleyes:Hello to all you chicken lovers, we have just started keeping chicks we have three at the moment in the coop outside and a little baby cuckoo marans who is 4 days old now.
    My question is we are now not sure if our french copper black is a she/he?? i have taken a pic of her she/he is 8 weeks old could anyone let us know.
    Also the small fawn coloured one which came out of a cuckoo marans egg is questionable as of her colour she is 5 weeks old.
    The bantam light sussex is 12 wks old which we think is a hen but now having doubts . Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Go into uploads. Browse for your pics. Upload it. Once uploaded, go into my uploads link in the lower right corner and copy the image address and paste to your post. I always check if it worked with a preview before posting.

    You're welcome. I post it a lot. I know how frustrated I was at first. Your BC looks rooish to me. My cuckoos don't look anything like that fawn one. Mine are 7 wks are distinctly black and white. She's pretty. Maybe someone on here with more experience with marans can help.
