    what is she. ** Photos added**

    It looks more like a rose comb then a straight comb in the pictures. If she has some feathering on her leg then she's probably a mix of some kind. Neither of the 2 likely breeds have leg feathering to my knowledge . For some reason the back of her head looks puffy, does she have a bump there...
