Hen or Roo?

[LovejoyHomestead]

Hi again!

We are 99% sure she is a hen but her comb is HUGE!! Does that mean she's going to start crowing soon? Is she a late blooming rooster? (Only 4 months old!)

Pullet...brown leghorn. Larger combs are a leghorrn trait

 

[AlleysChicks]

It means you should start looking for eggs soon!

Nope, it's a hen. She's a brown leghorn and that breed has big combs, but usually they flop over. Hers hasn't yet but probably will in the future.

Pullet! With a comb like that, you could get eggs any day.

 

[Abriana]

Leghorns have really big combs, and that is a very pretty pullet you have there. Happy eggs!

 

[LovejoyHomestead]

Thank you all SO much!! I'll be anxiously awaiting her first eggs!!
