Pullet or roo?

[VannahBee]

Does anyone have a idea if these chics are are Pullets or roos. Or are they to young... one is a silkie the other is a frizzle cochin but I dont think it will be frizzled. The feathers are to straight.

Bit young to tell, especially for silkies.
What age are they?

Definitely too young, sorry!

I believe they are 4 weeks but I can't be certain. I remember picking them thinking by the wing feathers I could tell but after more research I found out these two chicks are the exception to that. Only time will tell.

How about these other two I have. One is a polish and the other is a Phoenix. My guess both are hens. If someone knows for certain I'd love the input.

You’ve given us some hard ones to guess umm the first batch is just to young right now, more time is needed. How old is the second batch ? Your polish to me looks like a pullet . The other one I need to know the age

Polish is pullet. Age is needed on the bantam.

Out of curiosity, how can you tell the Polish is a pullet? I have a 10wk old that I'm curious about.

@ReadingRAEnBo I looked at multiple things. The hackles feathers are rounded, which points to pullet. Polish roosters also have pointed feathers in their crests (or headfloofs, as I like to call them) and this bird has rounded tipped feathers in the Crest.
Here are pics of both a hen and roo of a white crested blue polish. The rooster is darker and the Crest is more sporadic, while the hen has more of a rounded shape.

The males get little rockstAr streamers on the head, that one looks all nice and fluffy. Of course more photos of the crest would help. It’s a beautiful blue polish
