Leghorn breed, Rooster or Hen? 6 weeks old..

[Anarchy82]

I know the mother is a Leghorn. Not sure on the father. Chicken is 6 weeks old. I had another chicken from the same hen. And that chicken is almost 5 months old now, and her crown was nowhere near as big as this ones. And the other 4 in the picture are a different breed, but none of them have the same size crown either.

Please help.....

Yup... Looks like a cockerel.

Looks like a roo to me too!

I have raised Leghorns and that is definitely a roo.

I do hope so. I wanted atleast one of my 5 newborns to be a rooster.

100% rooster! Congradulations!

You have 2, maybe even 3. The black chick in the middle is also a roo. The other black maybe be also. The other 2 are pullets

The reason his comb is so much bigger, other than he is a roo, is that he ha.s a single comb, and all the others have pea combs.

What makes you believe the two black ones are roosters?

The one in the middle has a large red comb, the one behind him is harder to see.

I know my last group of chickens had small combs like that. And the one is definitely a hen, she has been laying for a month. lol

And I would say hers was about the same size as the one black one. That's why I was wondering why you thought they were roosters.

All I know is the white one (Klaatu) its top is huge. When born it already had a start of one.
