He is very interesting to say the least! Pretty boy!

Nice rooster. What breed is he? I like the comb.

I was told this was a Rhode Island but he has a lot of white markings.. is this normal or is he mixed with something?

He is definitely mixed. Looks like there is something with dominant white in his background.

thank you.

His brother (came from same batch of eggs) doesnt have the markings. Probably half brother or unrelated.

ignore the ugly coop/run in the back I was very short on materials that week

Honestly, when we first got Francis, I was pretty against it. It was my mom that wanted him, she wanted to "breed purebred Easter Eggers." When we got him he was four months old, ugly as sin on a sandwich... he didn't even have a tail! It had been picked out by the pullets he was housed with! Oh and he was terrified... wouldn't let you near him.

Well... It's a been a few months since then... and I think my mom definitely had the right idea, cause he filled out real well. Fingers crossed he carries the blue egg gene so I can get some pretty blue eggin babies I put him and my BCM over my EE girls this spring...
