I bought four Buff-Laced Polish chicks from Tractor Supply, and I am wanting to know their gender. I know that it is too young to accurately sex them, but there are ways to sex young Polish by the shape of their crest. All of these Polish are four weeks old.

#1 (Blue)

I believe this chick is a male because of his split and spiked crest, and the fact that he flogged me three times repeatedly.

I will go for female on this chick because of her crest being more rounded.

I am unsure of this one, but I think I am leaning slightly female.

I will say that this chick is male because of the split and spiked crest.
