Aseel cock/layer hen cross

Hey that aseel rooster in the pic has a peacomb? Or is that a Rose comb? Hopefully rose bc if not I'm back to square one
Aseel are supposed to have pea comb.
And in the photos, his comb looks like heterozygous pea to me.

I agree that it's the mixed hens chick. The pullet either has a walnut or pea comb(which are the 2 comb types we narrowed it down to. I'll get better pics later.) It would have to get the dominant P from one of those hens for both the Pea and Walnut combs..
If the rooster is heterozygous pea, then he can give P or p to his daughter.

If the daughter is heterozygous pea, she could have any mother.

If the daughter is homozygous pea, she would have to get it from both her father and her mother, so her mother would also need to have a pea comb.
 
Aseels have pea combs. Most gamefowl have single combs. So I think his comb is the result of those two types of comb mixing together. It does not look like a rose comb to me.

I based my judgement on body type and carriage, not comb type. I think the spotted hen is 3/4 Aseel/game due to the Aseel crossing to his own daughter. That's just my guess.

I also think that though he looks to be a typical color pattern that he probably has some hidden color genetics which are showing through in his daughters. Most gamefowl are not bred for color so all kinds of things can pop up.
Very good point thanks
