Where are the polish experts?

I think she’s a she. Her hair looks right to me. Do you experts agree? She’s 9 weeks

What is it about the third photo?

The saddle. The feathers are pointed like a rooster

 

[Shabby Chic-Hens]

Wondering if that’s just the photo/gold pattern? I haven’t noticed any suspicious feathering back there. The gold comes to a point but the black border seems round to me.

Here’s another shot of her booty

That's him. This is him in one of the outside nest boxes with one of the girls. Hahah.

I love how the roosters look like they just took a long drive in a convertible.

@BastyPutt word on the street is you’re the polish gender expert here. Can you take a look?

 

[Chikyboy]

Looks like a pullet.

What is it about the third photo?

Yep. As Shabby Chic-Hens said. In that photo the saddle feathers look sharp and elongated. I'm pulling for you for a pullet, but I started out calling my polish Lucille, and ended up calling him Lucian. sigh...I still love him tho'

BastyPutt hasn't been around in a while. This looks like a pullet to me, but Polish can take a long time to tell gender with accuracy. I see nothing unusual about the saddle feathers, and you don't usually get male specific feathering until 12+ weeks. Probably later for a Polish. The crest is rounded, there are no deeper colored patches at the shoulders and the legs don't look thick. Those are the things I am judging by in this case.

Thank you! Always appreciate your input!
