He's 8 weeks, black feathers with purple tones, feathered feet. Hatched from one of these eggs.

Agree with Crazy for Chickens.

Addendum: Might even be a true Ameraucana, though that's unlikely. He does have the right body shape, shank colour, and it looks like he has white skin. Those eggs look just light enough to fall on the blue scale.

OP states that he has feathered feet so I believe that would rule out pure Ameraucana. Most likely a mixed breed with some Black Copper Marans and EE or Ameraucana parentage but not necessarily an olive egger if it came from an olive egg. Possibly an OE if he came from a blue egg but that's pretty immaterial anyway since he won't lay eggs. What type of comb does he have? Pea comb or single. You can't make a lot of features out from those photos
