12-16 week old chicks - are these both roos???

[MCchickies]

I’ve just got into raising chickens and I have a feeling I’m starting to see some roos…… I have 2 silkies and 2 polish - I for sure think the black silkie is a roo due to the flyers out the back of his head. But I’m so so sooo confused on the white Polish chick because I’ve seen photos go both ways with what pullets look like. Please help!!!

Not sure on the silkies, but I believe the polish are pullets.

Thank you! Fingers crossed both the Polish are not showing any signs personality wise being cockerels. However the black silkie is showing some very dominate traits. I’ll post some more pictures once I see some more changes. Unless they start crowing then I’ll have my answer

Polish can be odd little birds. Hopefully no one crows.

The white one looks like it's from Whooville. ADORABLE

Not sure on the Silkies, but the white polish looks like a cockerel and the other a pullet
