Golden Polish hen or roo?

[Bella88]

Hi, this is a front view of my Polish chicken.

As you can see, no spurs, now wattles. Crest isn't particular big.
It has started doing a kind of crow everyday usually 6am and after 7pm.

At 15 weeks, too young to be laying so can't tell if a hen or roo.

I have asked the breeder and she says its a hen. But I'm not convinced. I'm new to this breed so not sure at all.
Any experienced Golden Polish owner/breeder advice me whether this is a hen or a roo?

Appreciate any advice.

Looks like a cockerel to me

Thanks. I'm kind of hoping its a hen.

Is there anything that shouts out it is a roo?

The crest isn't big at all. Also no spurs, no wattles.

The crowing part is the main thing.

Is there anything else I should look at for?

I am %90 sure that is a roo

My Polish does have little horns instead of normal comb. I think this is normal for a polish from my research. Should I be able to see these if it is a hen?

This is from my own experience so I could be way off, lol. If it was a pullet at 15 weeks the comb would not be that big. If you look at the crest feathers are they thin, pointy even? A pullet will have wide round crest feathers.

In the first picture it looks as though the saddle feathers (along the backside of the bird) clearly belong to a roo. Sorry. Pretty bird, tho.
