That’s what I was afraid of. I have a Polish cockerel and he’s very sweet. The one pictured is being hateful to him. So, do you mind helping me for future reference? The tail feathers are short and stick straight up, the saddle feathers seem so small compared to the Polish(same age), no crowing(Polish let us know weeks ago), and wattles are pink as compared to the red of the Polish. Is this just a breed variation? I will say that this one picks at the Polish cockerel, but not the Polish pullets. I actually had to treat his head today.
He has shiny, pointed feathers growing in on his shoulders and saddle. Those are male-specific traits. Other indicators are the spiky crest and large wattles (pullets wouldn’t get wattles like that until they’re about to lay).
Looks like a pullet so far
 
Hi, some more of my chicks wattles are colouring up 😞 any thoughts on these pics?
