Here is how he came out in the end. Very much a buttercup looking comb.

That's a really neat looking comb, DarJones! One of the traits common and preferred in Raraku is diminutive to nonexistent wattles, so I wonder if something that's modifying the comb is also influencing waddle expression.

I love it! Mine has a little feather tassel on his head too!

Thank you DarJones! I have never been entirely sure about most of my bird's combs genetically, though the single combs seem to be pretty straight forward. I work with landrace fowl so there is no strict standard for comb type. But there are some traits that are more common than others and...

Wow, @nicalandia, thank you again! This is the first and only offspring from her of 13 that has had this trait so I thought it was strange. If D^C is inherited by a Pp+ or PP individual would it be noticeable at all? Most of the offspring from this pair have pea combs so I’m wondering if some...

I like that imagery @JacinLarkwell !

I know comb genetics are known to be wonky sometimes. This is the first time I've seen a Duplex Comb in any of my birds. I usually see only Pea Comb or Single Combs and nothing else. This is the primary reason I think it could be a random mutation. What initially caused Duplex genotypes was...

Not exactly mixed breeds here but they are landraces which are known to have a lot of genetic diversity because no one has selectively bred them to display a specific subset of traits! :)

As the title says I bred a rooster with what I believe to be a Pea Comb with a hen with a Single Comb and one of the offspring has a Duplex Single Comb. I am 100% certain this is the pair that produced the offspring because they've been in the same breeding pen together for well over a month...
