Silkie Bantam Rooster?

[espers]

Hi all, I'm back with another silly rooster question. My last post was about my Lavender Orpington and soon after that post he started crowing much more prominently and grew about twice as big. He's a sweet boy and I'm so happy to have him.

However I'm now wondering if I have a silkie bantam rooster as well. This one has started crowing and I noticed more prominent features in their comb (the walnut looking bit). I did a lot of Googling and I think this is normal looking for a silkie, but again as I'm newer to backyard chickens I want to double check.

This chicken is almost 18 weeks old, if that helps. Thank you all again for your help.

Thank you all so far for taking a look. Should I worry now that I have two roosters competing for space, with my 2 hens? I know for sure the others are hens at least.

2 hens will not be enough for 2 roosters.

2 hens to 2 roosters is not enough hens you will have to get rid of a rooster or make him his own pen or get more hens

Thank you all for the advice. I have a friend who has raised chickens for years who has room for a rooster so she's going to take one in.
