I do not know if he's pure but he looks to be at least partly Silver Phoenix. That is the Silver Duckwing color pattern and he has a similar body shape, but seems not quite pure, wrong color earlobes. That's the only thing I got for you, sorry. Phoenix have white earlobes and his appear to be red. Now that I guessed, some Phoenix breeder will come in and tell me I'm all wet, but... BUT, there is also a Silver Duckwing Welsummer, I found, and that would have red earlobes, so maybe that.
Thank you,that was my guess too. Yes,he's a good size boy with a bad temper. He takes great care of the hens,but you can't trust him. I got him from a young friend who didn't listen when I told him no rooster. So he's going on 2 and he's so handsome but you need to be careful,he launches himself at you. Lucky no spurs and my husband trimmed his claws and wing feather. I keep a livestock paddle with me when he's near.
No breeding here! Will see how long I can tolerate this. Hate to end it for him,he's so beautiful,but I've had ugly ones before and at a certain point...
