My four month old leghorn.

It's okay, thank you though! Sometimes I still have a hard time figuring out their genders

Yeah, sometimes it can be hard. I once had one hen who we thought was a rooster because she was larger than another hen of her breed, grew much faster, seemed protective, and had a much larger comb. And then I saw "him" lay an egg.

Lol isn't that interesting? It's not 100% until they reach adulthood. It's really hard to sex these animals

 

[cluckcluckgirl]

I agree. Thank goodness only hens lay eggs otherwise I'd probably still believe that one hen is a rooster!

Welcome to BYC. Nice chicken, but it is not a leghorn (it is not single combed, and I don't think that rose combed white leghorns exist.) We'd need another picture, but it may also be a cockerel.

What breed do u think this is?

 

[chrissy903]

Maybe a bantam?
