mystery roo? mutt perhaps?

[kari_dawn]

So, my local ASOs brought me a new roo today....he's brand new, and afraid, so sorry for the poor pics...he has a black breast with smutty pseudo lacing (or really poor actual lacing, but he wont let me get a good look or a pic), feathered shanks, and he is not single combed...any ideas?

Could be a mixed breed, but it looks like a Partridge Wyandotte rooster.

Given the color pattern and rose comb, it looks like a Partridge Wyandotte rooster to me as well.

wow, I didn't think I would find any stray roo out in the stix like that...I guess I haven't seen many rose-combed roosters...that's pretty cool, and he does look very similar to the pictures on google images ha ha ha but...there's still the issue of the feathered shanks...I haven't ever seen a Wyandotte with feathers on their feet...

I couldn't tell by looking at your pics that his legs were feathered, but you are correct. If he has feathered legs, he's not a Wyandotte (at least not pure Wyandotte).

you can *kinda* see it on the second photo...I will try to upload a better pic soon

Yeah, he can't be a pure Wyandotte with those feathered shanks. He must be a Wyandotte cross that somehow inherited the feathered leg gene.

agree with Michael
