I was sold this baby at 3 weeks as a pullet.. but I'm beginning to have some doubts.. 9 weeks old today.

Cockerel.

There's no way a Polish can be sexed at 3 weeks old. Unless it was sexed at the hatchery or had DNA sent off.

Yeah, she said because of it's top knot being full it was a pullet.

Pullets often have smooth rounded crests, but cockerels sometimes have them too. Not a good way to sex Polish in my experience.
