Sicilian Buttercup (I think)... and supposed to be a Pullet. :)

I think that is the buttercup comb. I had a hen who was half Sicilian Buttercup bantam and half Birchen Cochin bantam and the half of her comb that was buttercup looked sort of like that. (Her comb was literally half single half buttercup, and she was the worst quality hen I have ever seen!)
 
Good shot of the distinctive comb, tn_artist!

I was looking for the comb in BaaKaaawk's shot and my eyes just aren't good enough to work it out. I was sorta questioning whether it's Sicilian Buttercup at all.
Thank you. These two made themselves pets when they were babies. Every visit to the brooder, they hoped up on our hands and stayed, or climbed to our shoulders. As far as I know, they are still the only ones entered in the buttercup comb contest. I entered muffin, and after months of no competition, my daughter joined BYC and entered Speckles. I didn't realize so few people have them.
