Wheaten Maran Chick?

[mylilchix]

Does anyone have pictures of wheaten maran chicks? Can you tell the difference b/n males and females early on? I have a wheaten maran chick who is 11 days old. It has some brown and black on the feathers, will it be a roo?

Thanks for you help!

I've got some pictures somewhere if I can find them. The pullets have more brown wing feathers and the little roos have much darker almost black feathers. If you have some of both the difference is very obvious.

By two weeks you can tell. The more black, the higher the chance it will be a roo.

Hi there.. I have a Wheaten Marans Chick that I have posted in the Blue/Wheaten Thread.. just hoping that maybe someone could take some more guesses on gender. This little one hatched 4/30 so is about 2 weeks old.

Thanks
