What breed am I? Or what combination of breeds? His rooster status is not in question.

Of note, his face is red except a dime sized dark spot. A pigmented spot, not a disease process. Should he have black skin like the other silkies?
 
It looks like my "sizzles" silkie/frizzles. They are so beautiful and funny

yes he should have black skin and dark comb but they probly breed in cochin to get the frizzleing
 
Umm, but you can eat him.

Looks like someone crossed a frizzle x Silkie then either F1 x F1 or back to the Silkie again, either way, that isn't purebred nor from good quality Silkie stock.

Not meaning to come down on him, just sayin' , red comb and all, . . .

I'd suggest a Silkie cross. If it was a pure Silkie, it would have blackish skin instead of the red on your rooster. Did you get him from a hatchery? If so, that would probably explain it: hatcheries will sometimes sell mutts instead of the real deal.
