Definitely a pullet, I think the "pink-ish" legs may be a fashion statement ;)

I think it's a girl too. Is there any chance one of Kyle's Brahma mixes got an egg slipped in? A little bit of cross coop hootchie-coo, or an egg mixup?

Those legs are pretty white. I would not put money on expecting them to get much more yellow, especially if you can see pink dots. Is the end of her beak lighter than her siblings'? Does she have any dark on her legs at all, and if so, is it bluish or greenish? If she IS actually white skinned, either by accident or by mutation, don't breed her or white skin will pop up here and there FOREVER.

I'm not going to breed her for sure. Pity because the shape and colour are good.

These eggs were from the girls segregated in the dog pen with a cover over the top Jan so I should be OK.
