This is my first time hatching Wheaten Marans. This group is 3 weeks old. In another week I’m sure it will be more obvious but does anyone have any thoughts? I have 7 chicks and they all seem like cockerels to me.

The first one (two images) I know is a cockerel based on feather color and wattle development. The second set of images is another chick. The feathering seems dark for a pullet but I’m hoping there is a chance. Thanks in advance!
