Yes. Combs and wattles grow along with the chicken. They should be visible by about 8 weeks old on most breeds. Some breeds take more time to fully develop. The cockerels will show first.

No. Combs and wattles lost to fighting or frostbite do not regenerate. A chickens comb and wattle is like any other appendage and does not have the capacity to re-grow after loss.
