I have a white polish chick, and I'm not sure if it's a rooster or a hen. I keep going back and forth. Any ideas? First pic is from a couple weeks ago, second one is current.

I'm also wondering about my two silky bantams

And yea, I was thinking the Polish was a Cockerel as well, but the head feathers are more rounded and not pointy like they say roosters feathers are, so it may be a hen.
 
I'm on the fence about the polish. Not too experienced with the breed. The other two are cochin bantams, not silkies. The partridge one is a cockerel, and so is the buff. How old are they? They look younger than 14 weeks
 
Those pics were from a couple weeks ago. The one is definitely a rooster, but I'm not positive about the other one. The polish's head feathers are rounded like a hen and not pointed like they say roosters are, so I'm not sure about that one🤔
 
First one for polish is a pullet and the second a cockerel going off of their wattles. Non-bearded Polish cockerels get some wattles early.

Do you have more recent picks of them? It would help clear things up
