Wyandottes (are supposed to) have a rose comb. Not sure about wattles, my two have wattles on the small side but I've seen Wyandotte wattles with some real swing to them 🤣
Yup, I'm aware. I put that together pretty early on, when she first started doing it. It's funny, it sounds almost exactly like when they lay an egg and call for an escort, but there's definitely more urgency to it. I love learning all of the different sounds they make and why!
It might be worth it to try, if the rescue would be willing to work with you on finding a suitable companion 🤔
