I took a good look at my Brown Leghorn today and she has WATTLES!! S/he's about 12 weeks old right now. What do y'all think?

 

[Riocotesei]

Leghorns mature a lot faster than other breeds. Along with that, thier combs and wattles get pretty big. I think it's a pullet.

she looks identical to my brown leghorn pullets! Congrads you'll get white eggs

Now here's a pic of a brown leghorn rooster for comparrisons sake...
by the way I am looking for 1 of these boys to add to my girls..

I don't have any right now, but she looks like my lil penny I had two years ago, wattles and all.

 

[Kezzie]

Yay!!! So she might be a she after all!! That is awesome. I already have a mistaken roo from my McMurray order. I didn't need another one!

I'm not that familiar with brown leghorns (I have white ones), but the wattles seem awful large (& red) for only 12 weeks (see below for pic of my 19 week old WLH) and the comb doesn't seem right. Don't brown leghorns have straight/single combs?

I am a 4 week old leghorn roo...(this picture is almost 2 weeks old!) I was hatched April 22.
Can I have a date with that cute pullet of yours?

oh, and I also started crowing at 4.5 weeks old. Click on the link below.
