Looks allot like it. Mine seems so long legged tho...?

 

[redneckchic]

Tall... does that mean a rooster maybe.

Young? He'll probably fill out and feather up some yet. Some of them do look quite long legged depending on how they are standing. Really interesting free egg to get.

What ever he is, he has saddle feathers, lot of wattle etc, so roo.

I looked up more Breda & it definitely looks like it. He's only about 5 months old so im sure it will fill out more.... Thanks for the input

I have zero use for him..... are they worth anything? Rare?

https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/561974/breda-fowl-thread here is the main thread on them, they are rare/uncommon, but no idea what a young cockerel is worth, one of those you have to find somebody who wants him who can get him problems.
