Nope, that's a cockerel and not a pure breed. Probably a black sex-link.

The marans blood, if it is really there, would explain why it's such a "girly" looking cockerel. Marans are slow maturing. It does have pointy saddle and hackle feathers, a definite sign of a male even though his lack of wattle and comb growth say otherwise.

I've not seen cock feathered females, but I have seen hen feathered males.

No I bought them about a month ago. He really looked like a girl then but I noticed him growing faster than the others and the thick legs and different feathers.

I have tried to write her to see if I could get an exchanged. But haven't heard from her yet.
