Ive never seen a chick comb like this. What type of comb is it? I don’t know the breed. It was supposed to be a Jersey Giant but isnt.

Where did you get it? Looks like a heterozygous V comb
It was in the bin with the Jersey Giant pullets at tractor supply. I’m thinking that whatever it was, its bin had run low so they put them all in the same one. I’ve heard they get their chicks from Hoovers, but I haven’t been able yo identify it. This was it last week.

It's so perfectly symmetrical that it looks like a carnation comb.

But Penedesenca and Empordanesa chickens are so rare that it seems highly unlikely that one could end up in a random bin at Tractor Supply.
That didn't comb to mind. I didn't realize carnation combs had points on the sides of the back of the comb, that stood straight out.

They typically just looked like slightly oversized single combs.
