Not a Sumatra mix as they have pea combs. He is a Faverolles mix with Australorp or Jersey Giant.

I do think that he could be part sumatra, as the comb can be altered with mixing breeds.

A pea comb is dominant to a single comb. When a pea combed breed, like a Sumatra, is crossed with a single combed breed all offspring will have pea combs.

The lines were mixed and altered for years, though; thank you for the help! Any suggestions on Peanut, my hen?

I think the hen definitely does have Buff orb in her maybe Delaware, Wyandotte?

That's what I was thinking.

Thanks! I also have a hen I was having trouble with; maybe part Buff orpington and part white leghorn? She has slate blue feet so that adds extra confusion. She lays cream-colored eggs. Maybe some Wyandotte also? No extra toes, clean legs, and she's the heaviest member of the flock.

Looks like a Lavender Orpington crossed with a Leghorn.

The hen definitely has some leghorn in there.

I agree with Grey about the rooster. My first thought was he had some Salmon Faverolle in his family tree. Then I caught glimpses of those lightly feathered shanks and had decided before scrolling down and reading what others had thought. I would guess he is the product of a Salmon Faverolle over a black bird. Whether the black bird was pure or mixed, I've no idea.

The hen certainly has some leghorn in her. I'm not sure what else she might be.

Hard to say on the hen. Those dark slate legs really throw in a monkey wrench.

Thank you all! I had vague ideas but your opinions really helped.
