Age and clear full body shots would be good.

The crest is very uniform and well rounded. I don’t see any wattle development at all. I’m voting pullet!

You won't see wattles on this one ever, because it is bearded.

The comb is not a round globe, but equally it isn't as wild as some I've seen. I'll post a pic of my hen for comb comparison

I believe the BI hawks are privately owned & trained. The Pueo don’t bother our flock, they’re nocturnal and night hunt. My hens are in their coop just before sunset.

The hawks here are wild, 'Io, and only found on the Big Island apparently. Our chickens are in a covered coop/run. I let them out only if I am right there, as unforturtunately we have a lot of mongoose where I live!

We’ve not had a problem with mongoose. I think they smell our dogs so stay away. Because they’re in the surrounding area. I’ve had hens for a year so

Friend of mine had one of her young pullets taken today! Granted they didn’t have a very mongoose proof enclosure. I have half inch by half inch hardware cloth over my entire coop and run with a 12 inch apron as well! I think when the chickens are bigger it’s less of a problem, but they can take a full grown Silkie!
