What in the world???

Kind of comb does my silkie roo have? This guy has a beautiful crow I love listening to him! His comb is huge I know its not a walnut comb so what is it?

 

[Teresaann24]

Anyone? Would this be considered a rose comb?

 

[Renee]

Gee, I don't know, but it's a whopper of a comb.

Looks like a walnut comb

ETA: I could be wrong

 

[Teresaann24]

Yeah tell me about it his comb has grew this size in over a month I was like WOW its most of his face.

Looks like a walnut comb to me. Here's a pic of my roo, his is about the same.

That's what I don't like about the silkies. Their combs look like a tumor!

 

[Robin'sBrood]

Those things should to be called brain tumor combs instead of walnut combs.

 

[Teresaann24]

LOL, I know I have a roo whos comb is not this big and when i saw how big his is growing I was like OMG What In The World. So it is a walnut comb?

Yes walnut. Standards in some countries apparently call for very large combs on roosters.. saw a picture of an Australian(?) silkie rooster with comb much bigger than that. It was practically a shield right in front of his face...

Yes, that IS a walnut comb. A rosecomb would have a "leader" or "point" towards the back and would be more bumpier.
