Where did you purchase her from? She’s 5 weeks old, correct? At first I was thinking maybe a Crevecoeur, but she lacks a beard, which can happen sometimes. Her body type looks right for that breed though. Oh, and yes, so far, she’s a pullet.

She was given to me. I had two polish, one died and I didn’t want the other to be lonely so a friend gave me one of hers to keep her company. She got her from a breeder off of Facebook. After looking on Google, I was thinking maybe a Crèvecœur also. Thanks

I was told this was a 5 week old white crested polish. I knew this was not true when I got him/her because the crest is obviously black. But I have been unable to find any black polishes on the internet so I’m thinking they may not exist. Was thinking it could be a Houdan but it only has 4 toes. Are there black polishes or is this another breed? Also, I know it’s probably too soon to tell, but if anyone can tell, I’d be interested to know the sex as well.

Adorable! It could have just "mostly" black for its crest, but there are black crests.. so lets say 2 colors of polish were mixed, or even another crested chicken w the polish, it could have a black crest. I see the feathers are still pinned a bit, but as soon as the keratin falls off, you'll be able to see the "real" shape of the feathers...

Just for a guess.. I'd say male as of now.. but i just had one of my polish i guessed male who ended up being female! Funny enough, with a black crest!

It's color is black and does appear to be growing a beard. Since it's just from a breeder on Facebook, you can't really be sure without contacting them, but typically Crèvecœurs are more common than Black Polish so that's what I would lean towards
