Cockerel Question

[Kaitlynd12]

Hi all. I am new to the chicken owner life, and had a general question. Is it possible for a cockerel/rooster to have no significant comb or wattles? We have a young cockerel...guessing about 4-5 months old and he has neither. It also looks like he has a double comb? Is this possible? I’m not totally sure what breed he is either. Any info would be great. Thanks!

So this is the other thing, we aren’t too sure what breed he is. I don’t have a updated photo. Can grab one tomorrow. Here’s a few old ones. View attachment 2394894View attachment 2394895

He’s a wyandotte mix. His comb is probably just on the smaller side.

I think he's silver laced cochin!
I love silver laced chickens, but how do you know it's a roo?

He’s not a purebred cochin. Wrong comb type.

Here are some updated pictures of Elvis. I’m thinking he is a cockerel, no?

Definite cockerel.

Just wanted to update everyone on Elvis. This is what he looks like now. He is stunning.

Pictures would be helpful with identifying the type of comb. What breed is he?

Theres a lots of different comb types, some big, some small, so depending on the breed of Roo, his comb type could just be a small one. Can you post a photo?

Wyandotte cochin mix?
Both rose combs and feathered legs are dominant genes.
