    any guesses if my white leghorn chick is a hen or roo?

    This is my white leghorn, she hatched on the 21st June so she is 18days old. It might be too early to tell but I don’t know what sex she is. I've never hatched leghorns before so I don't know what signs to look out for to distinguish weather "she's" a Hen or a Roo. Can any of you have a guess?

    Scaly Leg or age related?

    This is the foot on my 12 year old RIR, I've asked my vet and she doesn't know weather or not it is scaly leg or something age related. It doesn't bother her one little bit, but I cut her leg tags off just incase they were irritating her. I've been using Scaly leg cream (prescribed by my vet)...
