New to these. I bought several and were told they were hens. Not so sure now.

Trying to figure out the sex of these. Never had these and was told hens. Not so sure.

I picked up 15 and I know 3 are hens. All of the others are very questionable. A few are still young enough that it’s possible. But these 3 are the ones that are at least 7 months old.

The polish with a white crest - I don’t see pointed hackle feathers, but the saddle feathers are pointed. Is that what @Squawkers and @Egg Snatcher are going by (go easy on me, trying to learn here)? I know for sure when somebody starts crowing on the regular, then you have a roo!
 
2 hens and not sure about #3. can you post a better pic (I want to see tail). it is not polish but paduan chicken. at 7 mo old roos have red combs. paduan hens might have somewhat pointy saddle feathers but not as much as roos. not to mention roos start crowing at about 5 mo.
