I do see some lacing in the large feathers on the back area near the tail and yes as far as my limited experience, lacing on Polish does improve as they grow. I had a buff laced who just got better and better and now I have a hatchery LF gold laced who seems to be improving with age. He is only three months old, bearded and very sweet.

 

I think that your buff laced is very nice and has a good crest so far.

Looking for some opinions. I have two chicks, now 7 weeks old, that are tiny compared to the rest of the hatch. The others I moved out to the coop a couple of weeks ago, but these two are just too tiny to be outside yet. They are eating and drinking like normal chicks, but growing very very slowly. Would you consider them bantams or runts/dwarves, and how can you determine the difference?

Yes they are tolbunt, just very small. The other five from the hatch are all normal sized :)

It's very pretty. I think I may like it as much as the tolbunt. Is the progression on it further along than the tolbunt or still a work in progress?
