Any guess on a breed???*** Extra Pic added***

[Bec]

I can't find anything anywhere that looks like him....

Here is a picture of Jack when I got him a few months ago...

He has been changing in apperance ever week....this is a picture of him today....any guess on a breed or breed cross?

Here is another pic of him today..

How big is he? About how much would you say he weighs? While many here know more than me, I'll take a stab at narrowing it down a little. THe legs make me think Hamburg or Easter Egger. If he is small, he could be a Seabright. He looks a little like Welsummer too, maybe. Have you looked at Feathersite? That might be helpful to you.
Others with more experience will jump in soon.

He looks to me like an Old English Game Bantam cross of some type.

He is a little banty of some sort.....he weighs maybe 1 1/2 lbs...2 max

I think his breast looks a lot like a Seabright, but not the back or tail. Here's a link to seabrights on Feathersite.

Yeah....I looked at them...not so much....now, his father looks just like him but his chest is that pretty golden color... just solid instead of the "laced" look....his are starting to get solid.....his mother is a very plain brown with the same leaced looking feathers all over her...

Jack is only about 5-6 months old...

Oh, duh- you're right- I totally missed the comb! So that rules out both the Seabright & Hamburg as part of the mix, if he is one. Sorry!

I was looking on Feathersite and I found the American Game Bantam...maybe a cross?? I can't zoom in on their comb type...but the leg color is the same and very simialr colors....it says they are bigger than the OEGB.... He is about 1/4 to 1/2 the size of my BO girls....

What ever he is..I love him....it doesn't matter on the breed....Just hoping to see if there might be something out there i missed in the way of breeds....

The lady I got him from called me last week wanting to know if I wanted his brothers or sisters...AND that she has newly hatched babies....Unfortunaly, right now I haven't got the room for more....Bummer...

You have a OEGB, color is Brown Red.

I have a pair of these and 3 babies (all different ages)
coming along.
My roo doesn't have nearly as much lacing as yours;
mine is about 7 months old now

Here's a pic of my pair

Yours is absolutely georgeous!!!

Babies of this color are solid black.
When I got mine at Easter, I was told they were about 2 months old, so I'm not sure of
their exact age.

Here's a pic of my 2 babies at 9 days and 1 day old

and again at 2 weeks and 3 weeks old

Surely a banty, but I dont know about all the different breeds. OEGB - why not? I like the pic though!
