This is a pic of our chickie at about 9 weeks old. I’m thinking she’s a she/her? She’s now almost 11 weeks and her comb/wattles aren’t any larger or redder.

Wyandottes have rose combs though, and this chick has a straight comb.
Wyandottes can have single combs. I have 1 who does. It's just a hatchery chick defect. The first picture is my wyandotte with a single comb. This is definitely not a barnevelder. I have 2 and they didn't look like this. 2nd are my barnevelders

I don't have photos of my first barnevelder but she looked like the ones I have now. Maybe its a hatchery thing. I think I got them all at IFA and I think they use MurrayMcMurray
