Rooster breed

[ChickChic00]

Got him from family. They have a ton of mixed chickens they have free ranging. Some game also. No leghorns though. He has a straw type color on hackle and saddle feathers. Any idea on what breeds he is? Thanks!!

What breeds free range? The details will let us make our best guess.

He's probably a mix of whatever types that are running around.

None of the chickens they have are white. Blue red laced wyandottes, buff Orpington, barred rocks, some Rhode island red mixes. He is older, so don't know if he is actually a mixed breed or not.

He could be an Orpington mix based on the white skin.

You mentioned Games, are any of them white, or Silver?

Looks like he has some Buff Orpington. But I wonder what the white in it came from. It looks half Leghorn.

The game are all red from what I saw.

No leghorns around though. That's what I had thought too

Any of the chickens have white in their plumage? Not talking about the Buff Orpingtons, or Wyandottes.

Are the RIRs actually RIRs? If they have white, they're probably red Sex-links.

Maybe if the chickens are all mixed he was some sort of a throw back?
