I thought my Leghorn gals were roos until they started laying eggs! Mine have big floppy red combs. I have no idea how to sex or any of that, so I just waited, and wallah! I have all great layer hens. I hope you have the same luck.

Just the shape of his eyes. They are different than my Leghorns' eyes, and remind me of some meatie chick pictures I have seen.

No big deal though. Mine are hens afterall, not roosters so I might be totally wrong.

If you had a full body pic it would tell for sure.

Yeah I'll try to get a full body pic, but haha I don't know if I can, Major. Hoolihan (The possible roo) is super squeamish, He/She'll bolt at any sight of freedom. Notice my firm grip in the picture.
