Leghorn 🤔🤔🤔???

[Bgerth89]

We are brand new to chickens. We have 3(leghorn, cochin and asian black) and they are about 12 weeks.... My question is this leghorn. We assume "she" because TSC said so I was just curious about her very pale pink comb instead of the red I've seen in pictures. The other 2 chickens combs are turning red already. She's free range, enjoys grubblies and eats grubblies brand little peck's food. She's very active and doesn't mind being held regularly by my kids. I just wanted to know if we are doing alright as new chicken parents

She looks great!, do you have a pic of the other 2?

I have 10 Leghorn mix hens that are going on eleven weeks of age that look just like the one in the picture.

Sorry, I now realize maybe you were not questioning gender when you mentioned comb? She looks totally healthy.
If you were, she’s definitely female.

The red in their comb comes from a male hormone when they were heavy in lay I thought?

No…it turns red when they mature. Even an adult hen not laying has a red comb.

Don't worry, my leghorns are the same age and have similar combs
