Polish-Pullet or Cockeral?

[AzChickMama]

Hi everyone! I know that this is probably to soon but thought it would be worth a shot. We only have one polish so I have nothing to compare with and have never raised polish. Unfortunately when we got it we got two that were days old but one didn't make it through the night.

I have put pictures from when we got what we are hoping is a her and most recent at almost 5 weeks old.

@JustBabyMargo any idea if our little polish oreo looks pullet or Cockeral now? Here is 9 weeks! pullet!

Too soon. But, cute.

Sooo cute and has such a fun personality. If this is how all Polish chicks are I NEED more.

Nooooo I hope you are wrong! We can't have roosters . Maybe if he is he will be a "quiet" one.

It looks a lot like mine and she was a pullet. You can see her in this thread.

Looks very similar to my polish pullet when she was that age as well. I think there are characteristics and behaviors that you can spot while younger with keen eye. That helps, but waiting is the best for polish.
My polish cockerel is not quiet though. So, I'm rooting for a hen.

Your post is so adorable I love all the picture updates. So sorry to hear you lost one. I love how you all referred to @JustBabyMargo as the polish queen and she was updating as well. I could look at pictures all day lol

Too soon to tell. Check back at 8, 10, or 12 weeks.
