A Roo, Right?

[Iva S.]

I’ve got 5 Leghorn chicks (they’re all just over 6 weeks) and there’s 3 roosters, 1 hen, and 1 who I’m pretty sure is a roo (though I hope it’s not), but the waddle and crest/crown development is a bit behind the other roos, but is definitely bigger than the hen’s. Am I right in saying it’s a roo?

(It just happened to step in a bit of poo before this picture, lol)

Most likely a cockerel

6 weeks? Definitely a rooster.

You have a cockerel. You may want to post a pic of your 'pullet' too. Although pullets have bigger combs in the Leghorn breed, it shouldn't be red at all.
