HEN OR ROOSTER? NEED HELP

[calichiggin]

Hello everybody! A few weeks ago we got a pullet from the pound and they where unsure if it is a male or female. It is about 6 to 7 weeks old and have a few pictures to determine. We are pretty sure it is a leghorn. Thanks for the help!

I'd guess a cockerel looking at the amount of pink already in the comb and wattle. I hope if it is a boy your able to keep him where you live! Also I think it's wonderful you giving a home to an animal in a shelter!

Pullet. I would expect a Leghorn cockerel to have a much larger redder comb at that age.

Looking pullet to me.

Pullet, though she could also be a white Rock.

If it's 6 - 7wks, guessing pullet due to the pale comb/wattles but depending on the breed. Could get a picture of it standing naturally? From the side, closer head and back area. Looking for signs of saddle and hackle feathering.
