What the heck?

Hey, guys,
Remember the mixed breed hen that I put in the description above? I will take a picture of her tomorrow. This chicken in the picture might be some of her breeds. We got this mixed breed hen from a friend, so I don't know what kind of breed(s) she is. This chicken in the picture might have been her egg. I'll send you guys a picure of her tomorrow.
 
I think the ISA hen also. they carry a variety of genes and tend to throw white and red chicks.

Where I'm confused is the slw rooster, and the big ol straight comb this bird has. If the father is a pure Wyandotte, the comb should be a rose comb. This shows your rooster (one of them, at least) isn't homozygous for the rose comb gene.

That's exactly what I was thinking

I agree.

Could the comb be from the hen's side?
