Leghorn "Pullet" -- or not??

[Heidiliz]

So I have 9 chicks from Tractor Supply that are almost 4 weeks old. I bought 3 Leghorn "pullets," but one of them is really making me suspicious! Its comb is significantly larger than the other two. Its tail feathers are shorter. So far, it's the only chick that I have watched jump on top of the others occasionally. Is it possible that these are just coincidences or do you think I have a rooster on my hands?

 

[AlleysChicks]

Yep you got a boy

 

[azygous]

Just call him Foghorn.

 

[TheKindaFarmGal]

Yep, that's a cockerel.

 

[RoostersAreAwesome]

Its most likely a cockerel

Just call him Foghorn.

Or Stew.

Ohhhh, I am new here and was going to ask this same question!!! I love my lil brown pullet but I think they may have missexed her/him! Its comb is much larger than my other chicks, but they arent leghorns.....anyone know??

And then go to the supermarket to buy a chicken for dinner?

I was just going to ask this same question! Was supposed to be a pullet...but its comb grew almost overnight!!! What do you guys think?
