Is this a roo?

[M To The Maxx]

I am going to buy a Buff Laced Polish from a lady that has 2. I like bearded more than non bearded but the bearded looks like a roo. Is he/she a roo? I think so. Here are some pics of them. She did not say the sex.

both look like hens to me but I have never really been around to many polish chickens.

The bearded one is a rooster, IMO.

I am guessing Roo but I cant be 100% sure interested to see what others think

Neither one has saddle feathers, and all feathers look rounded. Any better pics of the tails/necks or are those the pics the seller sent you? I think they look like hens. The bearded one appears older then the non-bearded, but I honestly don't see any roo feathers. Also, a roo's hairdo wouldn't be so much of a poof - Here's a pic of my boy (bantam, but no difference other than size) - he's 8 months now.

Hey M
Go here and check out the buffs. Looks like both of those are hens.

Also wanted to say that the lacing tends to "get lost" on the roosters with their long saddle feathers - both of those have nice lacing head to tail.
