Silkie x Legbar?

[Party_Chicken]

We got our first six chickens from a school hatch. We had an easy time IDing 4 of them but the other two were difficult. We only had 3 left after re-homeing some roosters. We had a black jersey giant black star and our mix. She has a tendency to sit on eggs she lays whiteish pinkish egg. She is a little smaller than her friends. Her comb resembles a cream Legbar and she has a crest similar to it.

Doesn't look like a silkie mix, how many toes does it have

4. Her eggs skin patch and broodiness really remind me of a silkie though

Doesn't seem to have the fibro gene

It's usually pretty impossible to pick out what breeds are in a mixed breed unless there's some unique features.
Fibro wouldn't show up if the mother was a silkie but ya usually an extra toe would.
She doesn't have a legbar as a parent if she doesn't lay blue or green s.
it's gonna be a mystery.

Are there any other breeds that have that kind of comb?

Any chance she is a leghorn mix. I get a white egg from her practically every day.

Could be a Polish mix.

That's what I thought at first she just doesn't have enough hair

She would have half the crest if she were a Legbar mix. Polish is my best guess. Likely a generational mix, which would explain the smaller crest.
