1 Rooster, No Hens...Which breed?

[trueblue8008]

Hello from Central Texas!

I am new to raising chickens and am starting my flock with 1 rooster (as pictured below). Some help with figuring out his breed would be very much appreciated.

Thank y'all

He looks like a Belgian d'Anver bantam.

 

[ShellyBear]

yes I think your right. Or at least have Belgian d'Anver bantam in him.

I don't think he is, maybe a mutt chicken? this is what a Belgian d'Anver bantam looks like.

That is a D'Uccle. D'Anver is similar, but they have clean legs and rose combs, like the OP's bird.

Here is one. Sorry about that

Hi, welcome to BYC!

I hope you find some ladies for your handsome roo soon. You'll need about 10 of them to keep him from wearing out just a few girls,

Good luck to you, nice to have you here!
