Does anyone else have polish poland chickens?

[Rustysflock]

So, we have a fair few chickens. Last week we came back from auction with a box of chicks from a few different breeds, one being Polish Poland I had never encountered them before and was amazed by their crazy 70’s hair do. I have since discovered their amazing personalities. While all our chickens have different personalities these are completely different and i will go as far as saying one in particular has become a real buddy! Such an amazing little dude! Or dudette? As i’m not sure how to sex them? They are about a month old.

What do you call this colouring? And no idea how to tell whether they are guys or gals? I have 2 this sort of colour and one that is mostly black with a bit of yellow in his crown. Such fantastic personalities!

The darker one has a much fuller crown with a bald bit in the middle at the mo. We have nicknamed it Limahl!

The one in the picture looks like a mixture of colors. Still pure bred. I know, they have quite the personalities!
