Only growing one wattle ***UPDATED WITH PICTURES***

[LilPeeps]

I have a sebright roo with one wattle larger than the other, I've also had a dominique pullet that only grew 1 wattle.

Gosh, I can't really see a big difference between the two wattles. It's pretty common for a chicken to have one wattle a little bigger than the other.

All my chickens have one wattle slightly longer than the other. Some quite a bit longer. I think it's like people we're all a little lopsided.

Yeah, I figured it was something like that. I just wanted to share her uniqueness. As strange as it looks. It's probably the only way I can tell her apart from her two sisters.

So is it normal to have such a size difference in wattles?

Not typically....but it can happen.
