Random wild chicken

[Simo Hahey]

Hi
This wild chicken flew into my coop the other day.
Seems happy enough with the hens, so I'll keep it if it's a pullet
Can someone identify its breed and gender
Thanks

From this distance, it looks like a leghorn. Could be a pullet/hen. Can you get a closer picture?

Beautiful bird but be careful about a stray bird coming into your flock, you don't want your existing flock to get sick from something the outsider could potentially bring in.

Looks just like my white leghorn pullet.

I'll try but it's flighty ( leghorn trait)
Do you want a head shot ?

And white leghorns tend to be flighty.

Could be a White Leghorn, but leg color and comb size don't seem to line up. Unless of course it's just the picture quality that's throwing me off. There's also possibility that she's a pretty crossbreed.

Yeah it's a bit of a worry but the girls live in a free range pen in the bush, the fence is only 3foot high (only there for dogs) so I can't really stop it from mixing with them

Definitely at least partly leghorn. If you could get a closer pic of its head that’d be great.

Awh...the notorious leghorn Bigfoot. Elusive likes to walk on the wild side. Will lay 5 pound eggs! Someone might be looking for her. Check around. Retail on this chicken is 129.95$ I just love mine.
