I sold a 6 week old pullet to a friend.
She is going on 17 weeks now, and my friend is concerned that it’s a boy.
I’m pretty convinced that it’s a girl.
What do y’all think?

This is the only picture she sent me:

A better picture would be needed. From what I can tell the comb still has some paleness to it and isn't bright red so that leans towards hen for me. Leghorns do tend to have big combs so this is on the smaller side from what I would expect of a rooster. The wattles also aren't that big which hints me towards hen. However, this is all done without seeing the saddle feathers so I could be wrong.

Those are all of the things that I pointed out!
Thank you!
 
Here is an updated picture of her….
Still not full body. My friend is going to send me a better picture tomorrow. I will post it then.
Any further thoughts??
