@BlueBaby, can you tell?

I don't have a Bielefelder rooster, but I have 4 pullets. The coloring/pattern is similar, and their legs are yellow.

I doubt it.

Mixed breed. Impossible to know which breed the barring comes from.

Maybe you could ask wherever you got him from? To me it's just a mix, as not many are breeding purebred chicken's anymore.

Agreed.

I actually took notice of how big his comb was, definitely a mix.

Thank you all. He's not mine yet. I have a mixed flock and a neighbor wants to give him up. He is beautiful. I was just curious to know if any other bielefelder cross has the large white earlobes, yellow legs and that green tail. I just can't figure out the mix. I haven't been able to find any other photos like him online. I agree there are so many mixed right now. I will ask them tomorrow where they got him. I believe he was an accident from a TC. You know how that goes.

Legbars are the only large breed I can think of with white earlobes, so he could be a cross of that will something like a Rhode Island red. Just no way of knowing for sure. Bielefelders, Welbars, Rhodebars, barred rocks, cuckoo Marans and Dominiques all have red earlobes. I think California grays might have white lobes, but those aren't too common nowadays.
