Leghorn pullets do get combs early so I suppose it's possible. Update in a couple weeks! I will say, the comb is pretty big right now though... I would suspect cockerel but I could be wrong. I have never personally raised Leghorns or any Mediterranean breed so I'm not an expert on their development rates

Yeah I suspect cockerel as well… I actually feel like most of our chicks have turned out to be cockerels. Which would be awful since it’s a 6-9 month waitlist for any chicks/pullets around here and we can’t keep roosters.

I’ll update in a few weeks!

Thanks!

Pretty sure he’s a boyyy!!! Just over 5 weeks and he’s such a friendly little guy. Always defending the rest of the group. Big comb and red wattles already. His name is Banana.
