Sex, 5 weeks

[RoosterWhisperer]

Pullets have more feminine faces I believe, and roos kinda look...masculine!

I "suppose" your right, it helps when they also get thicker and lanky legs than hens.

So the way you tell gender is comb size and stance. Males have large combs, females don’t and males stand upright.

At 12 to 14 weeks cockerels get saddle feathers and males have pointy hackles. I would just wait on the black until he’s a little older. And I agree that the browns a female.

All polish have V combs. It’s not limited to gender.

I knew it!
It was a V comb.

Here are some more pictures! Yeah the far left black one (Barbara Jean LOL) and middle one (Sour Diesel) I was sure were cockerels and knew that the buff (Bubba) was pullet, but after reading comments and unsure of the two on the far right!

I have some old hens that look similar to that.

 

[RoosterWhisperer]

I'd say the black is a cockerel, although only time will tell...

The dark red one is a pullet I believe!

I hope so! Based on the size of the comb? Or other factors?
