Salmon faverolle: cockerel? (8 weeks old)

[Coastal_homsteader]

Ok, I have a sneaking suspicion after searching through other inquiries that I have a cockerel on my hands. I know he isn't mixed because the farm I picked my batch of chicks up from has separated pens for each breed... this is my first salmon faverolle and think I ended up with a cockerel (don't mind his night time quarantine box, the others pecked his little tooshie to the point of bleeding so he comes inside and stays warm in his tub then back outside in his own run until said tooshie heals)

The roosters are supposed to be very laid back. can you keep him?

I am going to try to. Our HOA says no roosters however figured I would write a letter and go to the next meeting coming up. I think I have some time before he starts to alert anyone of his presence lol

This is one of the type of cockerels I would have.

100% cockerel. Is he pure? It might be my eyes but I can’t see 5 toes… it just be the angle though…

Yes, he has 5 toes and is pure only same species were in the pens to gather when I went to the farm. I have no doubt - it would be extremely difficult to produce mix breeds for how the setup was.
