This is a young Polish chick... 7/8 weeks old or so. The feathers on the crest are rounded/blunt when compared to some of the other chicks the same age/size.

Sorry the pics are slightly blurry. My phone wasnt cooperating.

Well, I didn't find out my Silkie was a cockerel until he was 16 weeks old, so it could be worse. lol. I guess we're asking for it when we pick these breeds.
