This one I'm not sure on. To me the face says roo but the crest and tail say hen. So hen or rooster. ???
Age: 6 months

Looks like a hen from the back but the front kind looks like a roo.

I am very much sure that is a hen. The polish male's crest is very spiky, while a hen is more like a round cotton ball.

Roo I only say that because I had a khaki one that looked exactly like that and it had a perfect round top and then at 6 months it started getting a few hairs growing longer then the rest and started crowing... If you look close at the top feathers they look thin to me ... Boys tend to have a thinner feather on their heads that is a lot more uniform in width from root to tip... Girls top head feathers are wider at the end like a palm leaf....

Sorry ,but I'd have to say roo since my polish girls tail is not nearly that size!
