I bought this rooster as a chicken together with others a few years ago but unfortunately, i didn't ask the market man what breed they are. Now, i want to buy a new round of chicken and i need to know what breed it is so i can buy them.(i want to improve the genetics as a few generations had passed and their disease resistance seem to suffer but would like to get the same breed this rooster is).
I will try to give you some more information besides the pictures:
1. I got more roosters back then and i don't have them anymore, one was speckled and another one was orange/red.
2. It has a medium long black feathers tail, but unfortunately i pluck them when trying to catch him and make the photos
3. I'm from europe so it may be an european breed.
4. When it had 1 year of age he had 4,2 kg, now he is 4,97 kg. It has 13 cm long comb, 21 cm from the tip of the middle toe to the drumstick - i mean the part with scales. Also, it's about 65 cm tall when standing still and keeping his head up(straight posture).
5. I don't know if it's common or a breed uniqueness, but it molds the feathers from the eyebrows - the region between his comb and his eyes.
6. The last 2 pictures are more recent, he has part of his tail and because it didn't mold yet, it has his eyebrows feathers.
Please, i need to know this breed. I checked a lot of internet breeds with no success. If you are unsure about it, at least post it so i can check it after.

@Shadrach does this look familiar to you? My first impression is that it's a mixed breed, but maybe not. The legs remind me of Sussex but I'm not familiar with any Sussex this color.
It does seem to have the leg color of sussex, a white/yellow mix but the similarities seem to end there. Anyone has other opinion?
