The chicks are now 6 weeks old and have been moved into their outside home and run as they are now fully feathered and the barn needs to be cleaned out ready for shearing on Sunday 
This photo shows the difference already between the male and female hens. The males is the lighter one at the front and the female (pullet) is darker and with a much longer tail
Here are the rest of the Maran chicks, and it clear to see that I've got 3 males and 2 females. The jury is still out on the Sussex X Cream Legbar chick's sex.
