Feather-footed bantam breed?

Ohh. I'm sorry, I misunderstood. Thought you were trying to tell me it had a rose comb. 😅😅
No problem! I can totally see how that would be confusing. 😁 I'll be more specific as to who I'm quoting next time. ☺️
Plus, your much more knowledgeable at this than me, so I would take your word about breed over anyone else's.
 
I can't think of a feather legged rose comb bantam breed, I wonder what it is...
I have several rose comb feathered footed bantams.... Cross breeds of course. Cochin bantam, Sebrite, OEGB & silkie are just a few of the possible mixes but NOT Bantam Brahma so I am confused cz that was my first guess. But what baffles me is this guy...rose comb, feather feet and 5th toe! 🤔 Recessive gene coming out possibly? Not the best pics either

He's a d'Uccle and was from the get-go. The single comb and muffs were even visible as a chick. His mottling will come in with age and is starting already on his back :) Also, Buff Brahma bantams tend to have a different head shape than this chick-a bit more bulky and wedge shaped and more curved beak. In my opinion, their eyes are also much larger. I added a picture for comparison
