Help! Any idea what breed/mix this handsome fella is?

[CherieAmie]

I just picked up this handsome boy last night. The guy had no idea what breed or mix he is, but he was so handsome I couldn't resist. Any ideas? I'd say Rhode Island Red, but the "red" is lighter and more golden than my other RIR... Thanks!

He's beautiful...sorry, I have no clue what he is.

Perhaps a New Hampshire? I only have hens, but they are similar looking.

to me he looks like a mix of some sort

Thanks Eggcessive! I looked up New Hampshires, and I think that's a good possibility.

I agree with the mix, the color is good for the New Hamp but the body doesn't look nearly heavy enough.

Thanks for the feedback everyone! Here's another picture of him.

This is the result of a Buff Orpington hen crossed with a Speckled Sussex at 7 months old. My roo is just getting his sickle tail feathers...but he has the whitish pink legs that yours has....maybe will look more like your roo when he is older. Anyway...just a guess.
