It's almost 4 weeks old and is suppose to be a Leghorn. It's tail is so different than my other chicks and I'm wondering if it's a roo??? What do you think?
 
Looks like a 4 week old leghorn hen to me. Leghorn hens have large combs and wattles. I would expect a roo to have a much redder comb and wattles at 4 weeks.
 
I'd say wait it out to see, I've got 4 leghorn hens that looked just like it and still do at 6 weeks, hatchery sexed, to young to tell just yet, just my opinion

Thanks. I'm really hoping it's a hen because my dh doesn't want any roos.
