What breed could Kyle be?

[Chickenmama1966]

Hi. I got this beautiful rooster last year and would like to know his breed. I am his 3rd owner and his forever home. I asked the previous owners and they were told he was maybe part easteregger but the eggs from the hens are all brown and I've googled. He's a good boy, does a great job looking after his girls!

Sorry, I don’t know, but @MysteryChicken knows a lot about genetics. You could ask. He’s beautiful

He reminds me of a Silver Laced Wyandotte, although I don't think he looks quite right for a purebred. Maybe a mix of Silver Laced Wyandotte and something else.

Are you talking about eggs laid by his daughters? Or eggs from hens that look like him and might be related to him? Yes, either of those would be helpful for guessing whether he's part Easter Egger.

Or are you talking about eggs from the hens he mates with? A hen does not lay different color eggs when she mates with one rooster or another.

He is a beautiful rooster! Proabably a EE/mix of something.
A lot of hens lay brown eggs. The rooster doesnt change the color of the eggs.

I agree, he looks a lot like a SLW mix

The rose comb makes me think a Wyandotte cross.

Oh ok now I have that part cleared up. I thought that maybe the father made a difference in egg color. I'm a newbie, this is only my 3rd year having chickens.

His comb might have froze off. Before I got him, I was sure he had a comb in pic.

Well you're the 3rd person that said Wyandotte so he must be a cross! They're such beautiful birds. Thankyou so much.

Looks like a rose comb. Don't see evidence it was a single comb.
