white leghorn or white rock?

[anbsmom]

I am stumped on this one. It is almost 10 weeks old. It doesn't seem to be a slim as some of the white leghorns I have seen picture of, but it doesn't look big and fluffy like a white rock either. Any guesses? I don't know the sex either.

It's not real evident in that picture, but I believe that she does not have white ear lobes = not a leghorn, and probably a white rock.

Here is a close-up of another chicken, but they all look a like.

Great shot - red ear lobe . That rules our leghorn for sure. Probably she' s a white rock.

Thanks!

What's your take on this one?

Red Sex Link cockerel. Although, you bird has awfully small comb and wattles, so there's hope. Some kind of cross perhaps that merely mimics the look of a RSL cockerel.

I thought the earlobe was the flap covering. My bad! Is it what is under that covering that you look at? I look so I know what color egg they will lay. I would of said that one would lay white eggs, but guessing I am wrong???????

Thanks!

She looks like a white rock but they might be amber links. The bird with the red markings is a rooster, I think. I'm pretty sure I can see saddle feathers.
