    Hen or Roo Polish?

    Hey y'all, we have two young Golden Lace Polish chickens. They both came from a pullet bin at our local Tractor Supply but my daughter is insistent that one is a rooster. This is my first year with my own backyard flock, so really id just like the more educated guesses everyone here can give me...
