New to chickens i think these are leghorn but not 100% sure. On comb is more distinct then any kthe others.

They are about 6 weeks i purchased from tsc and were all suppose to be pullets i know mistakes happen and developments are just so much different i had a feeling it is a male

Big bright red comb and large red wattles = rooster .

Ive asked friend around that raise chickens and they say possibly but could just be a hen with large comb figured i would get good feed back on here

At only 6 weeks, that's a little boy all the way.

Hens do indeed get red combs, but only when they're sexually mature and ready to lay eggs--for Leghorn that's around 4-5 months old.

While it is true that leghorn pullets can develop some fairy impressive combs in SIZE, this bird is developing COLOR in comb and wattles and even in leghorns, pullets will not color until they are nearing the point of lay.
