JERSEY GIANT???

[Rose_adamaj]

I thought Gene was a Jersey Giant because he (I assume) has the correct leg & bottom of foot colors.
I got him from Murray McMurray as my free chick with my RIRs.
He is noticeably larger than my RIR, and has been since day 1.
I cannot find this color in JG.
Pictures are at 3.5 weeks and 7 weeks.

Please, does someone know?

Definitely not a Jersey Giant. My best guess would be Easter Egger, and likely cockerel.

I have a JG cockerel of a similar age and the bird is all black with a prominent straight comb. This bird's legs look a little greenish to me, as opposed to plain black.

Not sure on gender but agree with Abby above, some other breed!

Thank you so much!

Thank you Mary, I love his speckles too! No matter what breed he is I will keep him. I have the room and so far he is gentle and nice. I have only held him for the pictures, so he doesn’t have the wrong idea about where I am in the ‘pecking order’.

That's an Easter Egger, and I think it needs some more time until you can tell gender.

He's unusual and pretty!
