Maybe too big to be a Bantam, but not too big to be a standard....

 

Here's a pic of one that one of the members on here had. It's from May 2009. Thought it would help....

 

Red Pyle.jpg

1 German Shepherd, 1 Borador, 1 Malitpoo, 1 West Highland Terrier, 1 German Shorthair Pointer puppy, 3 Australorps, 6 Red Sex Links, 1 Black Sex Link, 1 Speckled Sussex, 1 Silver Laced Wyandotte, 2 Golden Laced Wyandottes, 2 Buff Orpingtons, 3 Tetra Tints (aka: Amber Sex Link) and 9 Easter Eggers.

 

YES, I had to thin my flock out. It went from 57 to 28.  :(

That's a game bantam.  OEGB's do not have LF counterparts.  They are true bantams.

Yes, I know that these exist...but if you look up their origin, they are not related to the Old English Game Bantam.

Does it really matter if it's related or not?

 

I'm just saying that this bird looks like a STANDARD Red Pyle Old English Rooster to me. The OP didn't say that it was a bantam.

Sorry, I'm not trying to be disagreeable, just trying to clarify.  I went back and reread your post...in my haste, I read OEGB and that isn't what you posted.  Please except my apologies.

No need to apologize, I'm not trying to argue with anyone either. I was just trying to clarify my opinion of what breed it could be. smile.png

Where are you located? Down by Philly?  I'm literally right down the road from Pocono Raceway, and the traffic up here is crazy right now because of the race tomorrow. LOL
