Marans breed and gender?

[MartyLea]

I hatched from shipped eggs that were a combination of black copper, silver cuckoo, golden cuckoo, and birchen.

4 hatched and I am guessing they are cuckoo?

I am thinking I may have 2 girls and 2 boys.

Know it is very early days but I am keen to get your views on

a) what breed has hatched and

b) the gender.

I think all 4 may be cuckoos and number 3 and 4 are boys.

Way too early to tell gender. Post updated pics at 6 weeks showing combs and wattles.

All appear to be cuckoo except maybe 4. Chick 4 may be a blue copper.

I think you are spot on. Two greys are boys, one cuckoo and one blue. The other two have me confused. I think number 1 is a pullet and 2 may be a roo in denial? What do you think? They are 6 weeks now
