what kind is this 13 week old.

This is one of my white chickens, well I mean out of three, she looks different from the others who I believe are white rocks, or white Jerseys, this one seems to have much paler skin, legs and comb.... Thank you all.

It looks like a white rock pullet to me.

I forgot to mention that it does not have the tail that the others have either, I would not call it rumpless but just a lack of tail feathers...

 

[gumpsgirl]

I've had different breeds that lack in tail feathers, unlike the others, until they get older. I think it just depends on the chicken itself in that regard really.

So if this is a rock, then are my others something different because they have yellow, orange colored legs where this one has very light almost white legs.

That's a good question and unfortunately one I can't answer. Sorry!

Maybe someone else will chime in here and give us some help.

I guess nobody wants to add to anything?

 

[gumpsgirl]

Maybe nobody else knows.

My sons leghorn has pail yellow legs like that, but your pullet looks to fluffy and doesn't have the right tail/body shape for a leghorn.

It almost looks as if it has the body of an Orpington because it is so full.

My only good guess here is a White Rock. Other than that, I just don't know. Sorry.

gumpsgirl, thank you so much for your reply no other answers so I asked about the leg color, I guess that white rocks have the yellow legs (like two of mine) so maybe your thought about WO isn't far off, she could be, it was in the list, she is just smaller then my BO but that could be, just because. My youngest daughter says like me she is just small.... (DD is darn near 17 and 4' 11" has been for a year or two.)

My leghorns have yellow legs.

My white rocks have white legs.
