Can Anyone Identify the Breed?

He's absolutely gorgeous but there's no way he's a Buff Orpington. He was part of a straight run of Buff Orpington's although as a chick, he looked exactly like the Orpington's in every respect but suddenly, he's become this gorgeous peacock but I cannot identify the breed. A mix of some sort perhaps???
I purchased them from Tractor Supply about 6 months ago...so somewhere around October??
What's up with that whacky comb and yellow ear lobes??

I can with all certainty say that this is NOT a Buff Orpington!

Absolutely gorgeous fellow though. Sorry I'm not much help.

He looks Whiting True Blue

Easter Egger.

Looks like a yokohama mix

Yes, he's just right for a Whiting True Blue, which is a specific type of Easter egger.

Yeah, he somewhat resembles a Yokohoma in coloring, but I doubt that breed is used in mixes at hatcheries because they are poor layers.

He's some kind of Easter Egger, I don't know how all the hatchery types look, but I very much trust Jed's judgement

Easter Egger? Hmmmm....Okay, I'll go with that because I'm pretty sure that Tractor Supply has sold them in the past, although they had nothing but the buff's when I picked up this straight run.
Whatever he is, he sure is pretty. I'm going to try to breed him with some of my buff hens. I just wish I could keep him away from my little Bantams!!
