What gender and breed is my chicken?

Hey, this is my 5 week old chicken. I’m pretty sure they are a white leghorn, but I’m not sure about their gender. Any thoughts?

It is still a bit young to tell. Wait a few weeks and post another pic.

Do you have any other chicks his age and breed? It’s always easier to compare, versus trying to judge a single bird. But I’ll guess rooster- just based on the size of the comb at just 5 weeks.

Unfortunately, no. I put 6 eggs in the incubator and sadly he was the only one to come out.

Sorry to hear that. Keep us updated on what he/she turns out to be!
