What breed is this beauty??

Definitely some silkie blood in there.

She doesn't seem to have even a trace of feathers on her legs. Even though the face does look a bit like a Silkie, I don't think is a Silkie cross. I go with Polish cross.
 
Looks like some of the silkie crosses i have here,never been owned by a polish chicken so i can't compare them to my mixes .

I had polish crossed with leghorns and the only polish trait they all had were a few feathers that stuck up on there head so I think if it's a mix and doesn't have silkie in it it must have another crested breed mixed in cuz it has a good crest for a mix

Still sticking with silkie/ polish

not all silkie mixes have feathered feet !!
 
My Myrtle has 4 toes. Her mannerisms are very quick and jerky. Don't know if that is helpful or not. She is a sweetie pie though and loves to be pet and fed from our hands. It is hard to believe she found in the streets and no one claimed her. She lived in a dog crate for a few days before she came to our place. I'm so glad she found her way to us, she is darling.

Thanks as always for your input.
 
Looks like a Creve, but the black skin and single comb don't fit.
Mabye single comb silkie with small amount of leg feathers + Creve/Polish= Birds that has single comb with dark skin, no feathers, and just happens to not have 5 toes.
Here's a pick of my Creve when she was 18 weeks old:
