Bantam cockerels need new homes Durham, NC

[Ximena]

Hi everyone. I have a bantam gold-laced polish and a silver duckwing old english game bantam that need to be rehomed. They are both about 12 weeks old and as the title states I am located in Durham NC. Message me for more info.

What makes you think the polish is a cockerel?

I assumed rooster because of the saddle feather and more vertical position. But maybe not? The crest is pretty hen like? What do you think?

Nope, those are a roo's saddle feathers. Also female crests are usually nice and round, but yours is more chaotic like a male's.

How so? Those saddle feathers are drooping, not pointed. That doesn’t mean the polish is a rooster. The crest is mostly rounded. I’m guessing that it will continue to get less wild as she grows.

They look pointy to me, and the crest feathers do as well. I'd say cockerel, but to each his own.

Maybe you should make a sexing thread. Along with closeup pictures of your polish’s saddle and crest feathers.
