Polish 11 week old chicks, male or female?

I’ve heard of people selling extra roosters as pullets to new/inexperienced chicken owners. And the only thing it accomplishes is passing the problem onto someone else.

That's really sad, our first time and it took me forever to convince my husband, sold him on the free range egg idea, kids love them too now.

Rhey look like a roosters to me, if you decide to get more Polish, I would recommend ordering them as sexed chicks. Have a great day and God Bless!

I sure hope some of them are pullets. They are stunning birds.

they are adorable although skittish even hubby is falling for them. I'm hoping at least one is a pullet.

Would you please post new photos of them - we need to see them facing forward so we can see their entire crest, etc. Polish are very difficult to sex - like silkies. I'm grasping at straws hoping to find one pullet for you.

Hello everyone,
I'm new to raising chicks, I got these Polish chicks as a gift from my friend, could you take a guess as to weather they're pullets or cockerels?

I feel bad just writing it but those are all cockerels. They all have the narrow pointed sex feathers in their crests. Maybe your friend will trade you for a couple of pullets?

Good advice, thank you, any suggestions of what I can do with them if they are roos? We are in Ft. Lauderdale.
