Is something wrong with comb?

[cluckmecoop7]

Hi all,

This is one of my three-week-old chicks. Her comb seems really different from the rest of my chicks. Can you tell me why? And/or is it just how she is...I mean, "fine". Oh! BTW, she is a Golden Wyandotte if that helps any.

Thanks!!

Also, she eats/drinks/plays fine.

Bump?

What breeds are the other chicks?

Her comb does seem wide but I am not a Wyandotte expert. If she is acting fine I wouldn't worry.

Oh and Wyandotte don't have straight combs. They have rose combs.

that's a rose comb.

I have two others of that same breed and their combs look different!?!

Look:

Different types of combs. The chicken in the second picture has a single comb.

That looks like a straight comb, not a rose comb. How sure are you that those are pure Wyandottes?

I don't understand.....How can the same breed have two different kinds?

I'll get back to you on that one. See you soon!
