Crested BCM? Just confirming

[Hootrvil]

Hello! All the eggs I hatched came from a pure BCM roo who was over several pure breed hens including BCM and Creme Legbar and barred rock...I know with the exception of the BCM hens he was with, that the rest were going to be BCM mixes.....Since one of the breeds that daddy roo was in with are Creme legbar, is that where this guy got his little crest?
Would he be considered an Olive Egger Rooster or no because he doesn't lay the eggs? lol....I want to find some value in keeping him around, because he's really a sweetie, even tho he looks a bit grumpy here. Thanks!

It would be a Crested Cream Legbar hen over the Black copper maran rooster to get a chick with BCM colors and a crest.
Therefore olive egger

Yes, he would have olive eggs if he were a hen. His daughters will get either a blue or a brown gene from him

That comb looks like legbar, too...agree? I have so much to learn!

He got a single comb gene from both parents, because Marans and Legbars both have single combs. So yes, his comb is the same kind as a Legbar.
