Supposed to be a Black Star pullet

Yes I have gotten birds from Hoover's Hatchery and it says they are '' pea combed " and I have gotten single comb birds. Since they are a hybrid breed - mixed with two birds - maybe it is possible that the single comb gene might have carried over to this bird.
Over all this is a really tricky bird to figure out - I am saying that you could possibly be correct that it might be a rainbow.
Prairie bluebell egger seems very unlikely. This bird doesn’t really have any traits that point to being a prairie bluebell egger, and has a color pattern I haven’t seen in that type of EE.
 
Good point about birds sometimes having a comb type that does not match the description.

Yes, I agree that this bird is definitely tricky to figure out.

If it does turn out to be female, we may get a clue from what color eggs it lays at maturity. (At 3 months, a female *might* have that much comb. At 2 months, I'm pretty sure a female would not.)
I completely agree!
