HELP | What breed is my Rooster?

Hello!

 

Can someone tell me what breed my rooster is? He is about a year old and was purchased along with a couple other hens that were mixed breed (they lay light greenish/blue eggs).

 

Sorry about the picture, but it was the best I could get; he wouldn't stay still.

 

Thanks!

He's probably an easter egger as well - that looks like a pea comb.

The remaining 6 of my original 7 barred rocks are 3yrs old and happily divided between a friend and my mom.
Laying: 2 Partridge Rocks, 1 Columbian Wyandotte and 2 Black Australorps. 14 weeks: 3 bantam Araucana.
Cowed to chicken math and sharing my bedroom with 8 BBS Ameraucana mixes.

game mix looks like he has some black copper marans (not the french standared though as he has no feathers on his legs) with the hens i would guess they are ee with their egg colors.
