He's around 2-3 pounds and stands about 12-15 inches tall. He's real quick and looooves to crow!! He also has bluish grey feet.

OEGB. Minorcas, even the bantums, are larger than that. As I edited my previous post to say, your guy looks just like mine ... and yes, mine loooooves to crow. No one can tell him he's not one of the "big boys" and he stands his own with them. It's funny, too, because my hens all seem to really prefer him to any other roos. I guess his lighter weight isn't so hard on their backs. Anyway, he's a real lover boy. He'll probably really go into a funk when breeding season is here again and he loses access to all "his" big girls.

Aww I guess his mojo will have to take a break! Our guy is very hard to catch compared to all the others, and your right, he does hold his own even though he is the smallest! I'm thinking we only have two roo's with 5 pullets. More fun for them!!

Do black OEGBs have white ear lobes? Most OEGs don't have white ear lobes.

This lil' guy has bluish white lobes, kind of iridescent.

Not a great shot but you can see how much smaller in size he is compared to the EE next to him.
