When does the white earlobe show up? I looked at some pictures of young Leghorns like mine but couldn't really see the white earlobes. I'll just have to wait and see what color eggs she lays. I really don't have room for another breed.
4 or 5 year old single comb white leghorn with a giant white ear.
The black back front left is a Black Ameraucana, the hen with her head and neck stretched nice and tall looking right is a single comb dark brown. Her white ears are clear, but not super large. She is about 1.5 years old.
The whites in the back are a rose comb white and a single comb white leghorn. The single comb is 4 years old, maybe 5, she has big white ears. The rose comb white is a bit younger.
