Leghorns - 3 1/2 wks (Pullet or Roo)

[chickenlickin8]

I have a white and light brown Leghorn. The brown one is developing faster than the white which leads me to believe it maybe a roo. Also, this one picks at food and makes a weird little noise that makes the others come running to see what is up. Thanks for your feedback!

Yes, the brown looks like roo. But with that comb, so does the white.

They both look like roos to me too.

Raised many in both of those colors..both are roos

Remember leghorns do have bigger combs. I think the white one is a pullet but I am not sure about the brown. A couple more weeks should tell you!

Leghorn pullets have very tiny combs until they go into production so both of those are roos, with the brown its even more clear because its chest is black, if it was a hen it would have a reddish brown chest.

They are both very pretty! A pure white leghorn rooster is one of the prettiest chickens ever IMHO.

Roos, both of them.
