How old? Hard to say from those photos but I think it’s a cockerel. Here is mine at six weeks

What type were they marketed as?

Edit-
I'm not a Marans expert, but that doesn't appear to be a Black Copper Marans. (A lot of color on the chest and front of neck?)

But does appear to be a cockerel, based on that comb (I'm assuming he's 7-10 weeks)
 
I bought them as a colored egg layer surplus so I got this one and a bunch of ameraucanas and a wheaten marans. It’s about 8 weeks old.
