Cockrell or Pullet??

[kaiter]

My white leghorn who is approximately 9 weeks old started crowing today so we are pretty convinced she is a he. I read today, though, that sometimes hen crow. I don't have any prior experience with white leghorns so I am having difficulty sexing him/her .. what do you think?

It's a cockerel.

With a comb that size at that age, you definitely have a little cockerel!

With that large comb and wattles and the developing sickle feathers, there is no question that it is a rooster.

Haha it is quite magnificent isn't it.. I was hoping for a hen and was blinded by wishful thinking I guess. Thank you for the confirmation! Now I can confidently change his name from Henrietta to Henry ^_^
