Probably a leghorn?

I got this chick a week ago from a friend who got it from a different friend. Its history is pretty much unknown.

It is notably larger than my polish crested chicks that I got from the feed store, but it doesn't have the heavyset look of a Cornish cross. It doesn't have the Cornish cross obsession with food either. I'm thinking maybe it's just bigger because it's older. So, maybe a leghorn? How old does it look to you guys?

Any better pics? A side pic, with chick standing would greatly help see feathering, comb, stance.

Here are some more pictures. Hopefully these are more clear. Thanks for looking!

Yes, possible Leghorn. NOT a meat bird bc legs would be much thicker. Age, at least 3 weeks based on feathering so far.

Probably leghorn or white rock. 3-4 weeks old.

Thank you. I suspected that maybe it was an Easter chick that someone couldn't keep. That age lines up pretty closely.

Usually people go for the classic yellow puffball chicks around Easter, and around here thats usually white leghorns or cornish cross. I'm very glad to hear that it doesn't look like a meat bird! I'm already pretty attached to it.
