In the second photo, it looks like those feathers are coming off the wings, so maybe they aren't saddle feathers?
You might have to wait until he lays and egg ;-)

Oh I thought "Streamers" were the long spikey head feathers? Guess I'm looking in the wrong place - ha ha ha

Just "Googled" STREAMERS.
They are the long straight feather strands that stick out Past the normal Head poof.

The other 4 SGs the streamers are more evident.
They like to pick on this one so I wondered if it was an under developed male.
I will watch the Streamers closely on this bird.
Trying to sell off all the other SG cockerels, but will keep this one regardless.
( luvin the head poof...have 2 young Frizzle pullets to keep him company )

MIne r almost 14 wks old ( 3 + months )
The others have more pronounced streamers ( or waddles )
But I see little spikes or maybe just thinner sections.
This guy has it going on - waddles, streamers & crowing
