roo. Leghorn's combs grow faster and larger but there is definatly some pink in there and my girl didn't get pink until about 14 weeks

I know this is an old thread I apologize - but what did your chick turn out to be - roo or hen? I have 5 WLs and only 1 has a small light color comb - the other 4 have big pink combs & wattles at the age of 5.5 weeks old.
Thanks,
Bobbie

It did turn out to be a cockerel after all. We re-homed him to a local farm, and found a similar aged leghorn pullet who was definitely a "she."

I am not sure. I have a white leghorn chick. We are trying to find out if it's a rooster or not
