I'd say White Rock because she has red earlobes. White Leghorns have white earlobes. : ) My family started out with white rocks and we grew to love them. They have great personalities, are laid back, and lay really well even during winter.

Not a WR at all...tail is too long and set wrong on the body, body is too slender. I'd say you have a mixed breed or some such but definitely not a WR....looks more leghorn mix than WR, even with the earlobes and such.

Not too knowledgeable about WR but that comb is too small for a leghorn, and the body a bit too full.

Possibly a hatchery Rhode Island White? The standard bred RIW wouldn't have that tail lift and set, but a hatchery stock one would.

Here's a vid of similar looking pullets at Cackle hatchery:

I think that Beekissed has pretty much nailed it. Body type says leghorn/red earlobes says not. She is either a mix or very poor quality WR.
