Hen or rooster? Polish

[kurby22]

#1 is a roo Because of the pointy head feathers?

Yeah, they’re both pointy and sort of chaotic and punk rocker style. Whereas the hens are more “pretty” and rounded and organized floofs.

I’m still seeing pullets. I could be wrong, I’ve sort of wandered away from sexing threads, but they look like pullets still, to me. If anything, I would say number 2 looks like a cockerel, it looks like it may have some pointy head feathers in some of the pictures. But, as I said before, I’m not 100% sure. For now, they are still pullets. Update in 2-4 weeks.

I agree 100%, Polish are so hard to sex, I have this conundrum now, my chicks hatched on the 16th March, I swear yesterday one of them let out a squeaky lame crow I watched…and it done it again and stretched its neck. But I have been fooled so many times! I personally think 12+ weeks is the only time to be certain.

That would be great if they are both hens!!!

Addtl info - I took #1 outside the coop to try & take pictures but the wind was blowing so hard that it made the feathers look crazy. The pics of #1 in the coop would be more accurate to what the bird looks like. I didn’t take #2 outside for pics.
