It looks like a mottled Old English Game Bantam to me

“If loving someone is putting them in a straitjacket and kicking them down a flight of stairs, then yes, I have loved a few people.” "Many people hear voices when no one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.”

People in Alaska don't tan, they thaw

Is he large fowl or bantam? Could be an Mottled Ancona or Exchequer Leghorn.

I'm thinking Ancona.

Breeding Welsummers and Barnevelders.

 

Having an Icelandic in the coop is like having a 2 year old in the house - they are into everything and don't follow the rules.

I have zero chicken willpower.

I am going to guess it is a mix of breeds.
