Question? Purple ears?

[JennyG0123]

So I have this new rooster he’s about 5 months. He’s a cross between Easter egger and a sliver laced polish. Polish is the daddy. He has purple spots on both sides of his face. Idk if it’s from pecking order or if it’s like his ears? Or some sort of skin disease? I’m going to attach the best photo I could get of him. But any answers would be great. Thanks!

Pretty neat actually - looks like that is the color of his earlobes. Perhaps the EE had some silky DNA?

Those are his ears, it's just genetics. :]

I agree that it’s just his genetics. He’s very pretty! Do you have more pictures of him?

Love it! I've seen purplish, but not THAT purple! So cool!

A beautiful roo!

He's a beauty! It's just his natural color, and I agree, he might have some silkie blood in him

Thank you guys so so much for helping me out! He is currently up for rehousing because we have to many roosters in our flock right now. A lot of people were commenting on how pretty he was so I was going to attach some more photos of him. I’ve also included some pictures of his brother. The only difference between the two are their tail feathers. We call them the twins

They're stunning! Definitely worth creating a line with them!

You'd be the first I know of to breed solely for purple ear lobes
