5 week old Polish

[Jayzandra]

I have three 5 week old Polish. I originally thought the WC Black was a pullet and the 2 Buff Laced were cockerels based on the shape of their skulls when they arrived.

But now I'm not so sure. Anyone know with any certainty?

#1 at three days old


#1 & 2 at threes old

# 2 at three days old

#1 at three and half weeks

#2 at three and a half weeks

#3 at three and a half weeks

# 1 now, 5 weeks old




#2 now, 5 weeks old


#3 now, five weeks




It was a hot day today, they were panting. I won't be keeping a Polish roo. I heard their agressive and I have people who want roos.

So far they look like pullets

Why, what is it you're looking for when deciding if it's roo? I was think the WC Black's wattles are looking awfully red.

Usually the crest is round like yours when it's a pullet. My boy had a Mohawk the whole time and a massive comb, except it wasn't red. But all chicks are different, so it's possible one might be a roo

I agree.

I wish more people did follow ups on these forums. It’s like “what’s the answer to this question?” And then people give their thoughts but then OP then deactivates their account or forgets about BYC and I’m left reading an identical post with no follow ups.

The search for answers continues.

Just wondering if my Polish at 5 weeks are feathering out like they should? I let run around in my craft room while clean out the crated I have them in.
