delawere rooster or not

Definitely rooster but a Delaware shouldn't have black sickle feathers. They should be barred. There is some barring so I'll say yes to both but just not the best example.

The breed is what standard it adheres to. If it doesn't adhere to any it's a mix or mutt depending which term you want to use. You've got a mixed breed there.
 
Not a Delaware, just a barnyard mix. If you mix a barred bird with a Colombian colored bird, it's easy enough to eventually wind up with coloring like this.
 
In the past I have had roosters come out looking the same, at the time we had a barred rock rooster and white rock and white leghorn hens.. Likely a mix with some type of barred rock in the lineage is my guess
