Hatched March 5, 2014. Is he a silver duckwing something?
 
Looks more like Silver Quill. And I think he is an OEGB but he might be a messy Egyptian Fayoumi.

I looked up silver quill and he didn't look like the baby chicks shown. He is one of 4 males that are alike.
 
Do you have a pic of what he looked like as a chick?
Fayoumi chicks are gray with red heads and white and red blotches outlined in black.
Silver quill [make sure the search engine does not confuse it with silver quail] OEGB chicks look the same but a bit messier in color.

Another Similar breed are Campines but they have white earlobes and the males have the female pattern which goes up to the neck.

I hadn't considered they would be fayoumi chickens, but I think you are right! Thanks!
