Bantam Phoenix or OEG?

[AJ916]

Got this beauty in a bantam assortment from Cackle Hatchery. I assumed she was an OEGB but the more she or he grows the more I’m thinking phoenix of some type? But I’m completely unsure other than she/he’s gorgeous and their tails a bit longer than any of the other bantams I have.

Thank you! I suspected it was a he, when those bright colors started showing through on those feathers! Do you have any idea what color variety he may be??

I will not lie to you, this one is slightly confusing to me. I'll tag the phoenix expert @JacinLarkwell

thank you I’m in desperate need of an expert because I’ve had bantams for years but I’ve never once owned a Phoenix I’m stuck between Golden duckwing (but I read that they were rarer so I’m not sure in that) or maybe red black breasted?

If I had to choose, I'm going to say golden duckwing, but I'm no expert on color

Thank you! He’s so pretty, I think Phoenix are a breed that I’m falling in love with now!
