Am I a leghorn?

[idnatalie11]

Hey! This 8 week old chic that the hatchery threw in with my EE's has this flat red hump on her beak (I think it's a her?) ... so I wasn't sure if it was a regular leghorn or not? Anyone know?
Thanks!

they are mutts, aren't they? why can't they have pea combs

I bet they got this bird from TSC, doubting they have fancy breeds like you mentioned

The bird pictured doesn’t have a pea comb. That’s a walnut comb (or cushion comb, which is a type of walnut). Walnut combs are dominant to single combs, so if cornish x had the genetics for walnut combs, there would be a lot with them. I’ve never seen a cornish x without a single comb.

Chanteclers are available from several hatcheries, one of which is cackle, which is one of the biggest hatcheries.

I agree that it looks like a white Chantecler. Wanted to confirm by asking where it came from. Did OP ever answer?

Ah, I see they did not. Still think it's a Chantecler.

Thanks for all the responses! We got this batch from The Chic Hatchery and I actually did get a "rare breed" order with my colored eggers I ordered and of course, they threw extras in! I'll look up the several you all mentioned!

I just checked The Chic Hatchery website and they do have a White Chantecler chicken listed, and it looks like what this chick will look like eventually.

No, it’s not. @Rhodebar Lover

It has a walnut/cushion comb, not a pea comb. Looks like a white chantecler.

I agree!

Definitely not a Leghorn. What hatchery did they come from?

That looks like a cornish. They have pea combs, yellow legs and that build
