Polish Chicken: Hen or Rooster?

[LuLu D]

Hi all!
I'm new to the chicken world.
I got 6 chicks for mother's day.
Now that they are getting bigger, I'm trying to figure out who is making all the noise.
Turns out it's Shirley (see photo) - one of my polish chickens.
If it's crowing - it's a rooster, right?

Thanks for your help!

That Polish appears to be a rooster. Could you get a side pic of him/her? You will get better results on gender guesses for future chickens if you post here. https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/what-breed-or-gender-is-this.15/
Also !

P.S. Hens may crow too, if they are the dominant one. Have a great day and God Bless!

Hello! I got a polish for Mother’s Day as wellAlso got 2 Spitzhaubens. Love them!! If ours are the same age (7 weeks) I’m guessing you have a cockerel because mine doesn’t have any wattles at all yet!
