Easter Egger Rooster

[Kelleysclucks]

I have an Easter Egger Rooster, 10 weeks old, who has what looks like a "war bonnet" of small feathers that stand up and point towards his back. He is very beautiful with a fierce looking face. I have learned that these chickens are call "mutts", so what purebred chicken would have to same distinctive feathers on their heads. His do not look like a cochin, because there is

No curl of the feathers. I have much to learn, as these chickens are my first.

As always, thank you all for the information and help.
