Attention Dark Brahma rooster owners

My Brahma "pullet" grew a comb and wattles and started crowing this week. 26 weeks old. The saddle feathers are still not very long but are slightly more pointed than the saddle feathers of the other pullets. But it is not at all obvious. "He" had no comb at all until this week.

I think the comb is the oddest part about him...

Newbie to looking at combs. Mine is bottom right. I copied and included other dark Brahma rooster pics up close. I see it looks different from the top right one but I feel like when it’s older it could look like the top left one???
