Unless your rooster is extremely choosey, yes, absolutely. Most roosters will be more than happy to mate with pretty much any breed of hen, unless the size difference is too great. However, in a big enough flock, most roosters will have favorites, and will usually (try to) mate with them a bit more than the others, though he will almost certainly mate with the other hens as well, unless there are just too many. In that case, it would be good to get a second rooster.

How do you tell the sex of a white leghorn by looking at the chick?

the way i have used for years to sex a chick was to pick it up by just its head. If it fights its a rooster if it just struggles for a sec then just hangs its a hen for me its been 80% effective but as for looking i was told once if you raise the yellow fine hairs just above the tail on the back and see a small slit or opening its a hen and if not its a rooster, I have had some luck with that but i found it faster and accurate enough just picking them up by the head.
