Yes, Leghorn mix, probably F2. Leghorn body type is pretty persistent down 2 generations of crosses, so it's extraordinarily difficult to tell what other breed(s) are in there, but it was something red (or carrying red) with white skin. If I had to guess, I'd say most likely hatchery sexlink rooster, but it could have been anything--her comb is unusually small for a leghorn cross. I bet she will lay loads of eggs!
