I purchased these from a local gentleman. I have a feeling I have several roosters in this bunch. I will attach pictures and number them. If I could get some help. I have spent many hours on this website and Google trying to gather information regarding males versus females.

These are some breed of Polish chicken approximately 14 weeks

first picture is the three I’m most certain to be male.

this next one I was sure
to be female until recent.

Then there’s this one... who knows at this point. We purchased 10, lost 1. I’m afraid they’re all roosters at this point 🤷‍♀️

At this age, the ones with those bright red combs and huge red wattles are cockerels. The others are pullets.
Keeping in mind that the pullets will be growing their own red combs and wattles in a few weeks.
Also, the cockerels will have or be growing male specific saddle feathers. They're long, pointed and flow over the lower back right before the tail.

Thanks for all the help!!
 
i think the saddle feather is what’s been throwing me off. I can tell by behavior Which are likely to be cockerels as well.

would you care to point out the one you feel to be pullets?? Lol if any!?!
I’m my reply to original post I have listed three more. My black and white one pullet. Gray and the white one ???
