this young lady and her sister don't have very pronounced combs and they're 5 months old. Is this common? The lady I got them from said they were BR's crossed with another breed she wasn't sure of.

It has the leg coloring of a BR pullet and the markings, I would say pullet for this age. Tho that comb seems to be pushing the beak right off the face.
 
So the mystery deepens as to what breed they are. One of the two laid this olive egg today. Did a little research and noted that EE's breed with BR's can make Olive Barred Rocks. Anyone have any experience with them?
