I picked up three chicks locally, all eggs from Greenfire Farms, one for sure a polish the other two Isbar or crested cream legbar. Unfortunately one of the chicks passed so I’m trying to figure out the unknown’s breed. I was pretty sure it was the crested cream legbar, however at 1month there is zero crest development. Also if anyone knows if it’s a cockerel or pullet would be appreciated!

Maybe a cream legbar cockerel, isbars don’t have yellow legs.
Do you know about when the crest begins to develop? Or when you know it just isn’t a bird of SOP? There’s absolutely no sign of the long pointed crest feathers typical in a roo

It actually may be a lakeshore egger cockerel. It probably isn’t a cream legbar because it looks like a mix.
 
Looks like a Legbar cockerel. My Legbar got her crest at this age, so I would assume not crested. If he's from the production and not the Rees line, than they may just show more variability.

I’m new to Cream Legbar Chickens. I ordered eggs and only 1 hatched, she had a crest at 2 weeks. This is her at 4 weeks old.
