Got this beautiful baby from a friend who decided that chickens were not for him (gotta love Easter impulse buys!) anywho he told me she was a brown leghorn but be also said that his Cornish x were leghorns -smh- after looking through some breeds I want to say its a red breasted rosecomb but am not 100% positive and I have never owned either breed any opinions are appreciated she is about 3 months old almost 4. She is also very flighty and is not fond of us yet hence the long distance pictures

I also suspected oegb she has that "wild" look to her lol or maybe it's because she is so fearful of me! I'm not familiar with them either are they pretty easy to tame down? All my other girls flock to me and she's so pretty I'd hate for her to always keep a distance
 
Could be an oegb but may well be a Brown Leghorn. The leg color looks rather too yellow for it to be an OEGB, they usually go more towards whitish pink. Leghorns have that slender build too. Give it some time, the earlobes will tell when they grow in, all White = leghorn, red or red with a white wash = OEGB,

Do you know anything on leghorn personality? I don't stray much from sizzles and silkies lol she is fitting in very well with the flock though, she just doesn't like me :/
 
She's really aggressive towards some serama chicks I have, she will neve let me grab her either, im guessing she doesn't like me or anybody picking her up
