So I bought 4 polish, 3 pullets from person A and a cockrel from person B. All are 14-16 weeks old. So the cockrel is very ovious, as he has red waddles, and 2 pullets are for sure. But there is one pullet who I am unsure if may be a male.
It is the middle one. The head feathers look like the cockrel and not like the 2 pullets. But there is no red skin apearing that I can tell.

So what do you think?

Sorry about the one pullet mooning the camera! She always does.

Well the one in the back is definately a rooster and judging by the photo here I would say the middle one is a pullet... seems she would have more of a rooster characteristic by now if she were one...

ETA: also her feathering pattern is that of a pullet and not a cockeral. So I think you are safe!

Thanks, the head feathers threw me off. I guess only time will tell for sure, but I'm glad someone else thinks it may be female. I only need one roo.

and thanks for the compliment. I just love the colour.

I love the color, too and wonder if you might post some more pictures of them? I have a golden that I am wondering the gender. He/She is 7 weeks, and it's still very hard to tell. He/She ACTS like a rooster, in fact, runs the coop.
 
I will grab some more photos this morning and more individualized ones. Hope it helps you identify yours stcroixusvi

Hmm, I assumed the waddles would come out from under the beard. so, I guess I will have to check a little harder, I will post more pics in a bit and then ask again. Thanks
