Our Polish and Naked Neck are 7 weeks old. It may be too early to tell, but...

Mocha (we think cockerel because of the Elvis hair)

Phyllis (she’s getting some red already, but pullet?)

Lola (we suspect a name change may be in order)

Lola is a Larry, what with the size of that comb.
Phyllis and Mocha are both pullets, at this point. Polish are harder to judge gender, since their poofs hide many of the signs... but I'm not seeing any wattles to speak of, and so far, that means girls. At about 12 weeks or so, they'll start growing their mature male or female saddle feathers and then you'll know for sure.

Thank you for chiming in! Yeah, this week Lola’s crest took a turn, so I suspected. I will keep my fingers crossed for Mocha. They are all weird little freaks personality-wise lol, so I can’t go by that.

I agree
 
Well, Phyllis (light colored Polish) crowed over the weekend. 3x in fact. Each crow was to let the others know danger was approaching the coop. (us lol) She is quiet as a mouse in the morning. I want to think she’s just a cute little freak. But.. she is the only one of the 3 showing any red so far, so who knows. The mystery is part of the fun? Lol

Lola-Larry is a cockerel, I’m sure. The streamers keep coming. Ironically he is the girliest acting of the bunch.
