Gender?

I'm not sure on the exact age. I'm thinking 4ish weeks. I'm pretty positive it's a roo. My daughter picked out the chicken and named it Mrs. I know Longhorns have big combs... pretty much just reaching at this point. Anyone had a chick like this that was a pullet? Its comb still seems fairly yellow.

Do you mean leghorn?

Yes, Mediterranean breeds like leghorns develop fairly early, but that's some decent comb there....though still pale. What's going on in the wattle department?

Haha yes leghorn

I would say that much comb at that age 'probably' does mean cockerel. But maybe post more pictures in a few weeks. If it's a cockerel it'll be more obvious by then.

Here's an update. She's gotten bigger but the comb seems about the same. I'm starting to think there is some hope.
