Malay have cushion/Walnut comb, not pea comb.

Shamo, & Malay are different varieties of Aseel.

Here's a Shamo, which does have a Pea Comb.

They might be Malay, but mixed with another breed, or just have a fault in comb type. Do they have more pictures?

So it must be a Shamo?

I got an early internal pipper.

Here's the link.
I would be well interested in getting some but I want them to definitely be the real deal.

Looking at all of them, they all have Pea Combs. Making me think more that they're Saipans. The color of the hens are correct.

Saipans are easier to find, & are under study by the livestock conservancy.

Thanks a lot for the info though. It's interesting.

You're welcome.

They'll most likely deny it.
