Breed help?

I’m new to the community and hoping to draw upon the collective wisdom of BYC. I need some help guessing what breed this 6-week-old might be. Bought from a Rural King as a “Bielefelder pullet” in a mixed bin of Bielefelders and Sapphire Olive Eggers. As a chick it was mostly chipmunk patterned, so I thought it could still be a Bielefelder, but as time went on it looked less and less like a Bielefelder, let alone a Sapphire Olive Egger. I also don’t think it’s a pullet because it looked me in the eye and crowed this morning. Unfortunately roosters aren’t allowed where I live, so I’ll need to rehome him sooner rather than later. From what I understand, RK gets chicks from Hoover’s Hatchery, but when comparing breed pictures and descriptions on the website, I couldn’t really find a good match that I was confident in. My best guess is one of the various “Eggers,” but that’s just because its feather pattern probably falls into the “it can vary” category. Any input would be appreciated!
