I have a Silver Spangled Hamburg chick that has a single comb. I know he's a product of my SSH roo and a SSH hen, so there's no question about breed, but they are hatchery stock. How often does this happen? His hatchmate, who at this point seems to be a pullet, has the rose comb. No comb visible, but the space is there. I'm just curious about how this could happen. I have no problem with it, but it's just odd.
He's 7 weeks old and already crowing, cutest little bugger, but the comb has me questioning...
PS - the date on the camera is wrong. I just took this pic this morning.
