Telling the gender of my baby chicks

Ok! Thanks so much! The market is over though. I managed to tell the difference pretty well! Lets hope the customers are satisfied!!!
 
Hi guys! I have to sell some chicks at a week old and need to know their gender. Are there any good ways you suggest to find out? I read about people spreading out their chick's wings to see if their feathers are uneven or even. Do you guys have any ideas?
What roosters and hens do you have that produce these chicks?

Some combinations of roosters and hens produce color-sexable chicks, and if you happen to have any of them it may be useful to know for the future. (I didn't spot this thread until now, and I see you have already sold the current batch of chicks.)
 
Yeh we have sold most of them. They are all crosses, Maran for the father and other breeds for the mother

What color Marans?

If he is Black Copper Marans or Wheaten Marans, some of your chicks can be color-sexable (for example, of the ones you photographed, the black one with a light dot on the head is a male.) If he is a Cuckoo Marans, that same chick could be male or female.
