The breeder is leaning toward hen but she consulted with another breeder who said young cockerel!?! No crowing yet (14wks) when do polish start to crow?

Ours started at 12 weeks!

Hey, everyone! I have a breeding pair of polish almost at the point of lay! They are my favorite so far.

He may be a Silkie and Polish Cross. Silkies have 5 toes. His crest is not as large as most Polish that I have seen. The comb is rather unusual. I think it is the result of a cross. I have a Gold Laced Polish rooster with a typical forked comb. That looks like a forked comb with additional points on it. I have copied a picture of a Polish rooster with a Forked Comb below. My young rooster looks the same.

Here's a pic of my polish I thought was a hen but now I'm not so sure! She is 14 weeks old and has one streamer on her head and red feathers coming thru on her wings. I need help today because the breeder is coming by today to pick up 2 other cockerels and I want her to take "BB" too if she is a he. Please help!!!

Sorry that is a rooster. The tail feathers ere a dead give away.

Congrats on the eggs!  They are no more difficult to hatch than any other bird.  Make sure you post pictures, we'd all love to see them.

I only got 1 of 6 eggs to hatch
