Help Sexing Silkies and a Polish

[Beaks Of Hazard]

I have some idea what gender they are, but would like some expert opinions.


Silkie 1- Is 12 or 13 weeks old. He carries himself in a roosterish way. And he's much bigger than the other silkie. Boy?









Silkie 2- 12 or 13 weeks old. Acts like a pullet, but I am unsure. Smaller and less feathers than silkie 1. Please say there's still a chance that it's a girl!

Polish- 14 weeks old. Girl?






Thanks!

The first silkie looks like a polish mix to me...and is definitely a boy as is the second silkie.

Hard to tell on the polish but it is looking girlie at this point.

Can you get better face pictures of them where we can see there comb better and whole face. Take pictures of the back and sides and feet to. It is to hard to see on the side shots of the face really can't see it that good.

PS I was talking about the polish one.

you really cant go off of saddles on a polish as they are also long a flowy on a young pullet (although a pullets will be brooder and round unlike the slenderness of a cockerels saddles) as you can see in my albums...i need to take some pics of them all here soon and update their progression gotta do the ducks as well lol

How old is your Polish chicken? I wanted to know if 4 months old or younger then 4 months old because they will change on you a lot. I have polish roosters and pullets. One day they can be one color and just start changing on you even the sex so it's important to know if it is younger then 4 months or not. To me it looks younger then 4 months old by a little, but maybe close.

OP says polish is 14 weeks old
