Polish crested gender

[ChrissyMP]

Hello, I have 2 silkies and 2 polish crested and I’m having a hard time sexing the polish crested because their hair is starting to look different. Any guesses?

They are adorable.

The black polish one is a cockerel. I can't see the feathers well enough on the other polish. If the ends of the Crest feathers come to a point, it's a boy.

Agreed!

Darn, I was hoping I got lucky and got 4 hens. The polish crested that is more white has a much poofier crest while the one that is more black has a spikier crest, so I'm assuming that one is the rooster. We can't have roosters where I live, so I'll have to re-home which makes me sad.

And now I want some polish chickens to keep my silkies company. Too cute. The black one looks to be a cockerel
