from my research one of the defining characteristics of the phoenix is the very long tail. Your roo's does not appear to be very long. I did notice that at the hatchery's website the do not include EE as a "rare breed" but they have
Araucanas. As I'm sure you've read on here Araucanas is considered hatchery code for EE.
