The black one I bought as a new born and was told it was a Narragansett! I bought 4 poults two hens and two toms the toms look like this and the hens used to look just like a Narragansett hen if you googled it!

The reason I asked is cause his tail feathers are brown and he started out way lighter not like a bronze at all
On the looks to be a very beautiful Bourbon Red, however you stated it was a Jersey Buff. If the weights are different for the two varieties, maybe weigh him and see that way.
On the right, he looks to be a super handsome Bronze or another variety mixed with Bronze. He doesn't quite have the coloration of a Bronze (but this could be because of the picture) and definably does not have the coloration of any Narragansett tom that I have seen. Maybe the gentleman that sold you him had Narragansetts, but a stray tom was making a few home visits. Either way, he is very beautiful and you should be proud of owning such a pretty tom!
