I have a second silkie rooster, but his comb is less (for lack of a better word)"nubby"

also second question
Does anybody else have a BO with this big of a comb and waddles?? (this is a hen, obviously. but if you were just to see her head, I would think its a rooster)

Silkies have walnut combs. Knobs are optional. Every one is a bit different. Same with your Orpington hen. Bigger combs aren't normal but they are unusual either. Combs swell and shrink due to temperatures and hormones.
