Where did you buy said bird from? And approximately how old?

Also, does it have a scissor beak? There's something strange about it's face.
I don't know enough about polish chickens, admittedly.... with but it looks like it's a cross between a V and a straight comb.

I'm going to guess bearded Polish cross...

Do you have any more pictures? It may help.

Yes the beak is deformed. ..has gotten along and grown very well 3 months old...she's sneaky too.
 
Hm, 3 months old with no red in the comb yet makes me lean toward pullet but I can't see the tail or back.

By 3 months old, should be able to tell by tail....if the tail is arched over with pointed feathers, it's a boy.
If the tail is very straight and sticks straight up, it's a girl.

It'll be an interesting looking bird regardless of gender!

Second opinion anyone?



That gives me some comfort--one of my month-old solid white EEs just developed scissor beak.

Thanks for sharing!
