"Lemon" is about 8 weeks old. He/she was all white until last week when brown spots popped up on his/her wings.

Her legs are as small as my other pullets and her comb is still somewhat yellow.

I wanted to add the the ear lobe appears to be white. My others obviously have red lobes by now.

Don't know if that makes a difference or not.
 
I have a bird about that age that is a sex link cross, and its a pullet....
Thy look the same!
I have roos the same age and they have much bigger combs.

Not sure on the breed tho....
 
I would say if it is a RSL it is definitely a pullet, though the color alone says roo. I have comets and the roos definitely looked it(combs& wattles) way before 8 weeks! My pullet is 11 weeks and her comb is not much bigger than Lemon's.

Could it be something other than a sex-link then? It was in an assorted pullet bin at TSC.

My neighbors have RSL roos and they definately had bigger, more red combs and huge legs and feet at this age.
