Roos or hens?

[Cindy-her6]

Hello,

Both of these are Black Copper Marans bought at IFA. They are 7 weeks old. One sees to have pointier feathers. Any guesses of whether they are hens or roos? Thank you for taking the time to look.

Tiny combs and lack of male coloration

Tiny combs and lack of male coloration

Yes, but can you tell the coloration of a males feathers this early? Those combs look small and light pink, not dark pink/orange-red like young roo's I've seen... Just my opinion

Thank you, I think every chicken I have is adorable! They are so funny to watch too!
