I just bought a NN Aloha cockerel on Easter, and he has yellow earlobe's. Is this normal looking or not?

Do you mean normal for the color or just in general? I have hens that have ears that color, but I don't have alohas so I don't know about that
I’ve only ever seen naked necks with red earlobes but I’m far from an expert on nn’s. Any possibility he could be crossed with something else?
My white leghorn rooster has yellow earlobes. The ear color usually goes with the egg color so I’d imagine any breed that lays lighter colored eggs is a possibilityMaybe, but what breed could it have come from?
Oh, yeah I think buff Orpingtons are notorious for it if they're hatchery quality. My pheonixes occassonally have them, same with my spitzhaubens. Not sure if any breeds are supposed to have then, but they doI've just never seen yellow earlobe's before on a chicken, so I was just curious.

He should be fine ☺I guess as long as it's not something that shouldn't have happened I'm glad, because he's pretty otherwise. The yellow just threw me off.
