Hello my chicken lover friends,
Can any of y’all tell me what breed my roo is..
He is black with the beautiful green and purple shiny feathers. He has brown feathers on his neck. His comb and wattles are black.

Many silkies have single combs.

??!! They are not supposed to have single combs. Where are you finding "many" silkies with single combs?

Edit to add: Silkies in the USA are not supposed to have single combs. OP's location is in the USA. I don't know for sure about silkies in other countries.

The fact it's black is even more Silkie - silkies have black skin.

Ayam Cemani and Svarthöna also have black skin.

Blue earlobes are very noticeable.

"White" earlobes over black skin makes blue earlobes--quite possible if Ayam Cemani or Svarthöna was crossed with a white-earlobe breed.

Photos of the feet would really help (because clean feet and no extra toes would pretty conclusively rule out silkie, while feathered feet and extra toes would point very strongly toward a silkie parent.)

Wyandottes aren't supposed to either.
It happens.
I will wait for OP to reply with some extra photos.
