He looks just like my buff orp/JBG roo and his wattles will get get bigger (1/2 in.??) if hes the same as my roo

Does Vaseline on those big combs and wattles help at all with the frostbite?

Yes it does. It helps keep the moisture in the comb. Frostbite robs the moisture from the comb. Having said that. In cases of SEVERE freezing..I always trudge my way up to the coop and put IcyHot or something like that on the combs and wattles of my birds and THEN put Vaseline on.
