White spot on 4 month old Welsummer's face

[Charlie0928]

Any idea if this is normal? It's not bumpy or anything, got a white spot on both side of her face. Also, she's quite skinny for a 4 month old pullet, but her waffle and comb are pretty red and developed. Yeah it did crossed my mind if she's really a he, what do you guys think?

Are they on both sides? If so, those are her earlobes.

Those are earlobes. Normal

lol, whew....

Welsummers aren’t supposed to have white earlobes. Is it possible she is a mix, maybe with a brown Leghorn?

 

[Charlie0928]

yeah it's possible although i was told it's a pure Welsummer. You able to tell by the pictures if she's mixed? Or maybe she's not even a Welsummer at all....

I just googled “brown Leghorn hen pics” and I believe that is what you have. Welsummers and brown leghorns look very similar except for the white earlobes.
