Here's a picture of what I know is a golden sebright rooster bantam.

This one is slightly older then the others, and definately bigger then the others.

He has dirty feet, sorry...

It happens occasionally, especially if they are hatchery birds. Single combs do not appear as often(if not at all) from breeder birds because the breeders try to breed to the Standard. But, some breeders use birds with single combs because they have better fertility than those with rose combs. The Single comb gene is recessive to all other comb types, which means 1 of his parents had to be homozygous for it, and the other was either homozygous for it also or it had a single comb.
