Crossbreds or just very poor breeding.

It’s easy to confuse a non spiked rose comb for a cushion comb.

Perhaps a Wyandotte cross. Likely cockerel, too.

Hi all! Sorry I missed all these replies! You'd definitely be right about their combs - these certainly aren't pure Wyandottes - cross at best but most likely barnyard blends!

We found them as stray hatchlings with their mother. Well, maybe-mother. She might have been a nest thief seeing as most of the chicks are cuckoo or white and she is Columbian marked!

Looks like we've got 9 boys and 4 girls! Our last batch ended up 3 girls, 5 boys so we are having terrible luck
