I know of Sumatras, but are there any other breeds that have more than one set of spurs?

I just noticed that a couple of my Easter Egg Bantam Roos are starting to get a second set of spurs. There's just barely the start of them, but it definitely looks like spurs...

Could this just be something that all chickens get or are my little birds mixed with something like a Sumatra? They definitely don't look like Sumatras at all. They look like "regular" little EE's...

some Polynesian and south american native chickens like the Rapaniu, Olmec, ayam semani may show multiple spurs at times, and guess what? the EE are concidered by many scolars as the Northen Quechua[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif].... [/FONT]
 
Hm, I didn't know that... I had to look up Quechua and found this thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/402512/quechua-tojuda-ameraucana-easter-eggers-in-vino-veritas. Would anyone of those breeds be used to produce EE's for hatcheries? Or do you think it's just a fluke kind of thing?


I'm wondering, too, why some of my roos are starting to get a second set of spurs. They're almost a year old; I would have thought they would be done growing... well, anything.... ??
No Fluke at all.....
