10 week gold laced Polish Crested - cockerel?

[labelo]

Last trip to the feed store my parents got a couple of Polish crested chicks for kicks. They were sexed pullets, but I think this one might be a cockerel? I don't have any experience with this breed, so not feeling confident. I'm mostly going off of comb/waddle size/color and the pointier crest feathers. In the second photo I maybe see what could be pointier saddle feathers, but in others I don't. I keep second-guessing myself, because photos of similarly aged cockerel seem to have obvious saddle feathers and are developing that characteristic unlaced solid red/gold patch. Anyone with more experience who can weigh in?

I've mostly been comparing the comb/waddles and crest to the other chick that I'm pretty sure is a pullet:

Yes, it is looking like a cockerel. Comb and wattles are large and red for the breed. Male specific feathering doesn't usually come in until later, after 12 weeks.

Definitely a cockerel, he looks like a punk rocker with his silly hairdo, very characteristic of a male Polish and he's pretty red in the wattles.
