My coop is filled with a flock of lovely wyandotte ladies. Love the breed. Well, in came this guy(?), who I don't know. I believe it's an Ameraucana Rooster. No one has claimed him and he won't leave my yard lol its been almost a month and I finally gave in and put him in the coop. I've heard him crow but not excessively and his tail feathers were long...before my dog got to him (reason 2 why he's in the coop now 🙃). So I'm curious what you guys think. Am I right? Ameraucana Rooster or something else? AND any pros or cons to wyandotte Ameraucana crossed?:)

It is a mixed breed, NOT an Ameraucana.
And it’s a girl, most likely. Need better pics of saddles and face.
Maybe someone dumped her bc she was a crowing hen.
 
So i just looked up the cream Legbars online and (I could be totally wrong as I don't know the breed) it seems like the breed doesn't have muffs and beards and roos have large combs, unlike EE who have muffs and roos have smaller combs. I don't know how well you can see those in the pictures lol

Agreed.
What ever she is, she’s a mix.
Likely lays blue or green.
 
I used the crowing and dog pulling out tail feathers to do the gender math :confused: I didn't realize it was bearded and muffled, I thought that might have been a bit of movement blur, but on that alone I'm going to fall back on my "could be wrong" disclaimer :p
