13 wk old GL Polish?

[mountainchickens]

Hi! We have a 13 week old Gold Laced Polish. I've never had Polishes before so have no idea as far as sexing Any ideas on gender? Thanks!

A bit unsure with this one, Leg thickness and saddle feathers look a bit suspicious, Face and crest look pullet-ish but i think i'm leaning more towards cockerel on this one... I'd give it a couple more weeks before assuming it's one or the other.

Cockerel, based on crest and saddle feathers.

Agree, cockerel going by the crest feathers

I would wait a bit longer. Any sign of a tiny red comb?

I've got a bunch of polish and the crest is pointy like a cockerel and the saddle is extremely suspect with some of the saddles even looking like they protrude further than the tail. Also, the second picture level of alertness also looks cockerel to me. I'd say based on my experience, if it were in my flock I'd give it a 90% chance of being a cockerel.

That said, he's super cute.
