polish...hens or roos?

[alliecat2886]

I have a silver laced polish and a buff polish and am hoping they are both pullets. They are between 8 and 10 weeks old. Thanks!

Your buff looks like a boy to me and your silver looks like a girl!

Lol. And here I thought silver roo and buff hen!! Guess we will see. Neither has sharp spurs starting and both act more hen ish...

They are to young to have spurs yet. Here is a pic of my male and female for reference

I didn't mean actual spurs...but I can feel the nub where spurs may or may not come in. I have pullets and a definite roo that I felt and on the roo the spur nub is very sharp and pointy. The pallet nub is very dull. That's all I'm comparing it to. I hope I have two hens so I can put them in with my frizzle roo next spring. But if I have a roo I've got 2 frizzle hens. I'm wanting some frizzle polish.

I'm new at sexing Polish, but from what I've seen I'd guess the buff is a hen and the silver laced is a cockerel. I'm going by the shape of the top hat, which seems to be a reliable indicator.

I'll be looking forward to seeing what more experience Polish folks say
