I have never seen a comb like that before... 

Really? I know when we got him she said it was a walnut and I remember seeing this photo when searching that:

I am expecting 12 eggs from a chocolate roo over 3 black and 1 chocolate hen. I lack in genetics knowledge so was wondering what color ratio you all thought I might end up with? Thank you very much.

I am new to breeding and would greatly appreciate any help you could give. I would like to know if any of my roos are good candidates to breed.

I don't see anything obvious that stands out as a DQ, but I can't put my hands on the bird lol the best way to tell is to get a copy of the standard and meticulously inspect your bird comparing it to the standard.
