Is this 11-week old Leghorn a rooster or a hen?

I don't see any leghorns in those pics but that cochin cross ROOSTER is adorable!

Even if it were a leghorn its still a roo since the hens don't get those large combs until they start laying(and 11 weeks is too early for that).

The friend we got our eggs from for our hatch has a number of different breeds, so it definitely doesn't have to be a "leghorn". That's just what she told us it was.

What is meant by "Cochin Cross"? Does it just mean it's some kind of domestic mix with feathered feet?

Thanks!

I have a 15 week girl Leghorn and yours looks like a boy!

cochin cross means that it looks like a mixed breed containing cochin. he has lots of cochin features but is clearly not a pure one.
