Is the tail feathers also a sign too? Cause I noticed that my ee has a different tale from the others. Kind of like the one in your pic donrae.
Can be....Leghorns have very distinctive tails...but it is always a toss of the genes as to which parent the chick will look like. I don't know tail carriage genetics to know whether tail length is dominant or not.

EDITED TO ADD: Donrae gave a better explanation...and I agree...hatcheries do breed in Leghorn to boost production.
