What kind of comb is this comb?

Trying to narrow down what cross made her. Shes about 26 weeks old (squatting but no eggs yet). I thought it was a single but it looks a bit different.

That is a "funky" comb; probably a cross between a pea comb and a single comb.

It is probably not a "crossed comb" but merely a single comb with many side sprigs to give a different look. It is considered a single comb, but it came from poor genetics and/or possibly crossing in the past. It is a disqualification when showing.

 

[jranee]

its probably a mix with a single comb

I agree it likely came from crossing in the past. I didn't intend to imply that it was an immediate crossing in the parents, just that it has some pea comb ancestry at some point in its past.
