Breed on this cute little roo?

[Ortiz5954]

Hey this is my little boy Ollie, he is on the tiny side but so cute! Breed type thoughts? Saved him from feed store from becoming food, but is he a regular roo or a meat bird?

Is he a bantam? He looks like a sex link rooster.

 

[Ortiz5954]

Not sure to be honest. I just got him from the feed store and he had been there so long that they forgot what he was. My daughter felt bad for him. So a regular roo then, sex links are not solely meat birds correct?

He does look like a stubby red sex link cockerel. No, they definitely are not solely meat birds. The females are hybrid egg laying machines.

What is this little Easter eeger?

 

[Ortiz5954]

How old is the EE? Got a front pic, from side looks like a roo eith the high tail feather there sticking up.I'm new but have to EE both hens,I could be wrong.

those tail feathers + red on wings = rooster

First bird is a red sex link.
Second bird is a cockerel.
