BARRED ROCK or DOMINIQUE???

[McChooky]

So this lady came to buy some hatching eggs from my mixed flock. She then asked if she could take one of our barred rock hens, so I said sure.

She went home, then texted me saying (in my own words)
" I think the hen that I have is actually a dominique... "

She then went on to explain why she thinks it's a dominique instead of a barred rock. She said it was because the comb was kind of flat, and it had 6 spikes instead of 5 or something like that. I was like 99.99% positive my hen was a barred rock, but now I'm not so positive

She also mentioned the egg color was lighter brown and she claimed barred rocks lay much darker.

I'm pretty sure dominiques have rose combs, but my barred rocks ( I have 4 left, because I gave her one ) all have single combs.
So is it possible for a dominique to have a single comb? Is this a dominique? ::

Barred rocks are darker and their bars are not as wide.The Dominiques barred feathers are wider and lighter since they have more white but its still hard to tell them apart.

The tail feathers on a Dominique tells the tail! Very unique.

The tail feathers of a barred rock are uniform and do not taper or curl at the tips.
