word around the forum is that they all develop at different rates. I've even read that some little dudes don't crow til much later. I wouldn't worry too much. My neighbors keep hundreds of chickens and dozens of roos. My little guy had lots of crowing to listen to and work himself up with.
 
wow, that sure looks like a lot of comb for only 4 1/2 weeks
do leghorns develop faster?
very cute video

Maybe it is a leghorn thing. Here's a thread about Miss_Jayne's "Little Daddy" a White Leghorn with way more comb than mine has.

sometimes cockerels can crow very early. it can be any breed to do so. it's just proof that they're all different.

leghorns don't develop faster than any other average breed, about 15 weeks for maturity for cockerels, 20 weeks for laying for the pullets.

there are always a few in every bunch that are doing their own thing like this.

your little one is a sweetie, Chew!

Little Daddy gives his approval. (and let's face it, that's what matters!
