Polish sexing

Pullet or Roo? Heard some crowing today from my small flock. Of our 3 unknowns (2 polish, 1 silkie), I know that my silkie is a roo, but wondering if I have more than one roo. We got our polish end of June, so about 3 months old now.

Thinking my golden-laced is a Roo....

And here's our silver-laced which I suspect is a Pullet...

What do the experts think??
No one has any guesses on these guys? Pullets or cockerels???

Did is Rouge I'm pretty sure she's too young to sex. But I was wondering what signs to look for in a boy and girl? Never had a polish. So I'm new to it all.

I read (several sources) that a hen will have more of a mushroom shape top hat. For me, this proved to be true. Roos have a wild and crazy doo. I think you may have a girl on your hands but I'm new to chickens!
 
Anyone care to guess at these? About 9 weeks old now. Sorry about the potato quality pics, had to go visit the coop in the dark to get closeups.

Smooth White - Boy?




Frizzle Laced - ? Doesn't act like a boy, very pointy head feathers though



White Head - ? Smaller than the others but given they are 'hatchery quality' that may not mean anything.





White Frizzle - ?

 
I'm new to chickens. Is this a pullet or cockeral? He/She has me confused! Behavior says rooster, but no red comb or waddles at 18 weeks? Thanks!
