You guys sexed this Leghorn as a pullet. 8 weeks. You sure?

That’s a pea comb!
If it was a single, I’d say pullet.
But that’s a cockerel.

I was going to say the same. How the heck did a leghorn get a pea comb???

If its a pea comb, it's a mix. If it's a rosecomb, it is pure

 

[JacinLarkwell]

Either way, that comb is awfully red for 8 weeks. Mine for both combs are 6 months and still incredibly pale and tiny. But mine aren't leghorns either

leghorns can have rosecombs?!

Yes. Rose combs and singles are both recognised in the standard

You just broke my brain, I did NOT know that!!

Makes it hard to identify, unless you get the back story of the bird.

Cockerel.
Not pure, either.
