    This is a 20-week old pullet that a friend has; she's wondering what breed. Any ideas?

    Thanks, JohnL....anyone else? Would it help to get a closer/better picture of her head? I'm sure it's nothing fancy, probably is a white rock. Thanks!

    I'm also thinking white rock. Those legs are yellow, aren't they?

    I thought the legs were white, but they could be light yellow. She's not my bird, so I'm not sure. Probably white rock; thanks for your feedback!

    I think I'm going with White Rock also.

    A Leghorn would have a MUCH bigger comb by this point as they mature faster.

    I think she looks like my White Rock, too and my WH lays a lot of eggs though she is molting right now.
