I have a almost 6 month old polish chicken and want to know if it is a hen or a rooster i dont have picture of it right now, it does have a red wattle and is lound if i could see picture of what you have so i could see i will put pictures of mine very soon
 
Well, any rooster will have long, curving tail feathers, and saddle feathers. It'll be easy to tell by now. Polish roosters also have long, stringy crests. Hens have big puffy crests. Sounds like you have a hen- a rooster should be crowing by now. By loud- do you mean clucking, or crowing? If it's just clucking, you may get an egg soon.
Below is a picture of a roo.

well it looks nothing like yours so maybe its a hen but for the past few weeks have just been making this loud sound i am not sure what a crow sounds like maybe she getting ready to lay a egg hopeful that it thanks so much for the help
 
Hopefully you'll get eggs soon :)

If you post a picture I can easily tell you.

Does it look more like this?

 
Hi we have just bought our first pair and if its anything to go by the hen makes as much noise as the roo, its a high pitched cackle and she never shuts up, if I only had her and not the roo I would have convinced myself she was a he! :)
