Do all roosters have wattles???

Excuse me for not knowing every breed that doesn't have wattles. And some have them . but they are little.

Here are a few photos of the bird in question. One of the photos is of the back of the neck with a bunch of pin feathers coming in. The feathers it currently has have a greenish sheen to them. The bird (Isis, for now) makes a lot of noise in the morning, but doesn't crow. Isis also runs around with its neck sticking out like a torpedo - LOL! The other hen I have that I got at the same time started laying on the 5th of January, is smaller, of the same breed, and has less of a tuft on her crown. Thanks for the reply - you guys are very helpful!

My sizzle is a mixy too, maybe if you mix chicken breeds the wattles go away over generations...?
