Was just wondering about what I thought was a hen. It's a Majestic Midnight Maron. Does this look like a hen?
I thought it was but the red on it's neck through me off. The one on the right in the pictures.
Thank you for your help.

Looks like a pullet to me. If it's infact a Midnight Majesty Marans ( it does look like) it's a sex link hybrid.

Example= Black Copper Marans Rooster x Barred Rock Hen produces Midnight Majesty Marans.
Cockerels will be sex able at hatch with white dot on head. Cockerels will feather out Barred.

All Pullets will feather out black with copper hints in their hackle.

If she's a MMM, she should have feathered legs/feet, although it's possible some turn out clean legged. I have one, she is solid black with a lovely purple sheen, no red collar at all.
