Is My Rooster Is Leghorn? I'm confused

Modern games hold themselves much differently. The back is sloped on a modern game cockerel. The legs are longer, and the body is carried differently. My son is showng a modern game bantam tomorrow.

Ohh awesome ..!!!
I never had a gamebird yes u right he like to play alot
 
Yea when I get him everyone says he's a HEN when he feathered up and crows then we know he is a roo he is 5 months old by the grace of God
If he is 5 months he is probably a full Leghorn, but has not filled out. However at the same time there is a tiny chance that he is crossed with a White Modern Game, and he that would still make it possible for him to have yellow legs, shanks, toes, and beak

Ohh I feel so glad thank u so.much for ur information help me a lot ..
 
I don't think he has modern game in him. If he did, his legs and beak would be dark, not yellow. What do you mean by straight comb and single comb? Here in the US, your rooster would have a single comb. He just does not seem to have many ooints to his comb. Here, gamefowl breeders call single combs straight combs, as opposed to pea combs.
Actually you are incorrect about the dark legs and beak.
White have yellow
Red Pyle have yellow legs and toes and the thighs are white
And there are a few others that have horn colored beaks, but use descriptions such as ash, or willow for the description of thighs, shanks, and toes
 
White modern game bantams have yellow beaks, shanks, and toes, but they have red earlobes. Also, white modern game bantams are most likely recessive white, and white leghorns are dominant white. The offspring would most likely look like a pyle pattern. You would come closer to getting a white bird using black or Birchen, not recessive white. Although, using a pyle bird might work, but you might still have leakage. Also, the poster is in India. I am not sure how common a white modern game bantam would be there. I am not seeing game at all.

Body wise he looks leghorn but that headshot looks far from a leghorn or at least anything close to a decent leghorn to me.
Attached is a headshot of one of my leghorns.

Also attached is a modern game bantam. I see nothing resembling MGB in that bird.

One thing to keep in mind, this bird is in India, and i am not sure what the standard there says a leghorn should look like. As far as i know, everyone, including me, that has responded is in the US. Also, those in the US do not know what breeds are common or available in India.
