Hen or Roo?

[blriehl]

Here is my White Created Polish... Hen or Roo? No Spurs, No crest
... But my other hen doesn't have wattles like this one.

Looks like a hen to me Roo's have realllllly long wattles. How old?

 

[blriehl]

She's 10 weeks?

I looked up a picture and noticed the Roos had massive wattles and different head feathering. I was hoping she just matured faster than her sister. I love my Polish chicks and was hoping both would be hens so I could keep them both

She is a HE!!! My Silkie Rooster has starting picking on him and he attempted to crow this morning... So sad.

.yes she is a hen. I had a hen that look a lot like your chicken. polish chickens are very pretty and great pets.
Hmm not for sure why the chicken try to crow for...

Wasn't sure why the other Roo would be picking in a hen (I have two and he leaves that one alone) and he/she started to try to crow... Three times! I also think I may see spurs. Ill take another picture tonight...

 

[blriehl]

Spurs??

 

[risk]

Well I guess i was wrong. It's look like it could be a rooster because I see the long tail feathers. Hmm well there's way to know for sure if its a rooster or not... is the polish getting any saddle feathers in..

 

[blriehl]

Umm I think so :/ so bummed! His head feathering doesn't look like a polish roosters would
