happy holidays everyone hope your all enjoying I have finally taken some better pics of little Flo now her radiation has worn off/I turned the flash off lol
everyone's post have been really interesting to read through I think I've sussed out she is a bearded? she's growing nicely though

and I know she's not polish but this is her roommate fluffy this hen less than a month ago was attacked by the other warrens I came home and thought the cat had had her she had lost 95% of her feathers was covered in blood and just looked terrible I wasn't sure she'd some round from it, BUT just look at her now I was a little concerned when putting them together with the general size difference and all that but they get on beautifully

She's so cute

she does look like a polish crossed with a buff or red silkie! Not like a polish crossed with bigbird anymore

can anyone post a picture of a winning cockerel with the points that made him win? I don't know the standard for polish, and reading doesn't do anything for me.

Here's my guy. Hes a bantam and loves to crouch down low when hes handled, so hes not standing as tall as he does when left alone. He won best junior polish in december. That show didnt give out points and i never spoke directly with the judge. But he does weigh spot-on with the standard weight.

Polish breeders- does anyone know how long it would take to breed the white out of crests if I crossed White Crested Polish to another breed with crests that are same color as the bird's overall plumage? Or if it's even at all possible?

Any and all knowledge would be greatly appreciated!

I don't know.

Sand Hill Preservation has solid black Polish. If that is what you are after.

I still get white popping up in my Crele Laced Project offspring and I am on Gen 5. I do have chicks hatch without it, so it's possible, just not sure how many more gens it will rear its white head.
