Dad is an Americana chick and mom is a sliver laced Wyandotte mix with ee
It does not have "no comb," it just has a very small comb that is black. Considering the parents you listed, the very small comb is not suprising.

I think it is probably female, but I would give it another month or so to be sure. If it is male, it will probably grow slender pointy saddle feathers within that time (saddle feathers grow on the back, just in front of the tail, and on males they are skinnier than most other feathers. They also get long and hang down on both sides of the tail.)
