Breed possibilities?

Hey all, back again 🤗
Just wondering if anyone has any guesses on what breed this guy is ?

He does also have some gold bits along his back and neck that is not visible in these pics, He was from a batch of eggs that were easter eggers, i know that they had sultan and shamo roos and pure hens- not sure exactly what breeds of pure hens but 1 i do know was aracauna
He has Plymouth Barred Rock, possibly mixed with a Rhode Island Red from the gold, would be my guess. Most Plymouth roos are more silver than the hens with more while striping, so I would guess his mom was the Plymouth due to her gene carried to make him darker in pin striped than the typical silver/grey on my Plymouth roos.
 
If you know this about his parentage then you know that he's a mixed breed. :)

There's no shame to having a barnyard mix chicken. Hybrid vigor can be advantageous, after all.
True, i didnt even think of it that way 😂 damn baby brain 😅🤣 i guess i was more wondering what his 2nd breed actually was 😆 received a message from his breeders farm late last night confirming that he is an olive egger roo
 
If I had to guess I'd say he's a first generation EE/BR cross.
Except that it appears he has a small crest.
Maybe cream legbar / BR? He looks like he has that little legbar tuft on top.
I could definitely see legbar in him, but he would have to be mixed with something other than BR to get that pea comb.
