I have 2 black copper marans and an Easter egger and a maran mixed with a wyandotte...curious what everyone thinks at this point as far as hens or roos? I know it's a bit early but my curiosity is getting the best of me :) thanks!

How old?
I think the first is possibly a roo and rest hens but hard to tell if you do not know the age.
The Easter Egger and the little black one on the last pic are only 2 weeks and the BCMs are 3 weeks. I know I'm being impatient, I was just curious if other people's guesses were the same as mine :D
 
Alright guys...we're approaching 5 weeks, do you these two are hens? The other two are definitely roosters as they keep tusseling with eachother. So I won't include a pic of them this time. These 2 are BCMs.

Nothing is screaming cockerel but you're still a tiny early. Marans get combs pretty quickly compared to other heavy breeds but their combs still look really yellow so that's a good sign.
