This doesn't work for Marans. For Marans you should be able to tell gender at 4 weeks of age.
This is a cockerel.

Oh no, really. I just put pipe cleaner around the ones i thought were female.... kinda was surprised , i counted 11 /13 female.

SO im guessing now the 2 I suspect to be male chicks are the americauna chicks. I was given. after everything hatched I couldnt tell them apart , even now I cant I look at the legs and everyone looks like they have feathers. LOL I have pics of the rooster and hen that laid the eggs / not americauna ones of course. I will see if I can figure out how to do this... pics are actually in a text on my phone from my friend who gave me the eggs.

Wing/feather sexing will not work with Black Copper Marans. Or with any pure bred for that matter. It only works for very specific hybrids that have been selected for the traits "slow feathering male bloodline over a fast feathering female bloodline".
