This was labelled as a RIR at a feed store but it's starting to look very different from my other reds. Red mix?

It looks like a pea comb almost. I'm only used to seeing large single combs on RIRAm I seeing a rose comb?
My other reds are old fat hens with large single combs. Different purchases from long agoDo you have a picture of your other RIRs?
Ok. Yeah, they don’t have pea combs. It must be a mix of some sort. I have had Cinnamon Queens and they look similar, other than having some black on them. Cinnamon Queens are a mix between Rhode Island Reds and Silver Laced Wyandottes.It looks like a pea comb almost. I'm only used to seeing large single combs on RIR

Probably a production red rather than a RIR. The comb is only different because the chicken is younger so the comb is smaller.
