Can anyone help guess the breed of my mcMurray roo?

Any guesses at to the breed of my roo? I ordered the rainbow layer package & the free chick as well.

Looks like he has a peacomb and clean legs? Would vote Easter Egger.

 

[lindychick]

yes clean legs and a pea comb. plus his legs are a bluish green. was thinking EE myself just thought there was some usual breed out there. He's a total sweetheart. not Rooish at all at 22 weeks.

Yep, easter egger. He looks incredibly similar to my own EE roo.

Took me the longest time to actually tell if he was a roo. Never got that red on his shoulders like someone posted in a thread on here.

He's an Easter Egger rooster.

He's an Easter Egger rooster.

Yup, I agree. : )

It did for me, too, when we ordered chicks several years back. For me, I think it was wishful thinking. LOL Ours is a very nice rooster, as well, and is great with his hens and chicks.

From what I can see (detail) on the photograph, it may be a 'Columbian Wyandotte'> but it's just a guess! Of course, no matter what (?)... he's a very handsome roo!

Easter egger rooster.

He may still develop some reddish color as he ages, a lot of my EE or mixed breed roosters do. Or, he may stay pure black and white, who know?

I just wish I could leave him with his girls. Very talkative. I can have a rooster where I live, just once the neighbors complain he's gotta go. He has a house in my basement for now but I let him come upstairs with a diaper on. He takes to the diaper well. I hate to put him in freezer camp he's so nice. If he would only learn to be a little quieter with his crowing.
