is this Ideal's Production Black or something else?

I'd send a pic to Ideal and ask what they'd call him. Being a hatchery bird, the best you may get is EE, although he just doesn't look like one to me. That comb is some weird mixed thing, so you really can't tell if he's going to carry blue egg genes or not until you breed him.

Again, I agree.

Thanks very much y'all!

I have a rooster from Ideal that was in the bin with a bunch of Black Australorps at Atwoods, solid black at the time. Now he is Black/Green in the sun with some flowing red feathers.

He sure looks like half Black Australorp/Easter Egger now that I think about it.
