This one has me stumped. Boy? What Breed?

I got this one with some other chickens, the hens just started laying that came with him. Well, I cam thinking he is a boy. Correct? But what breed? I was told New Hampshire Red, and he is defiantly not that.

hmmm interesting looks like a red sex link hen but it has saddle feathers and that deep mahogany/red on its wings and back making it a cockerel...over all a mix of some sort if he starts laying eggs i will be shocked with those saddle feathers coming in lol

2nd generation Red SL. Someone thought they'd breed their own and didn't know they were one time hybrids. They make handsome roos, don't they?

Okay thank you both. He has already mounted 1 or 2 hens. And my rooster does not like him, but he tolerates him. So he has to go. Already have someone interested.
