What breed is George?

[dmeservey8998]

george is a year old rooster we got as a chick last year. He’s very protective of his hens but is aggressive towards me. We will be trying to rehome him soon and would like to include his breed in the description. Any ideas?

he looks like a light brahma but with the wrong comb. You could list him as a pet quality Light Brahma

except if he's attacking you he can't really be a pet...I'd say Hatchery Quality Light Brahma

Thank you. His comb is huge and flops over his eye

that's if you know that he came from a hatchery. If not, he could be a mix breed and would therefore be a Light Brahma mix

could be a light brahma/leghorn cross or with some other Mediterranean breed like minorca or andalusian

I’m all about full disclosure so I will include that in the description. It was suggested that he needs more hens but we only have 2 that he watches and 2 that he ignores.

he came from a friend’s backyard. She has a ton or different breeds. That Cochin in the back was from her as well.

That’s not a Cochin that’s a Mille Fleur Belgian Bearded D’Uccle.

Agree about the d'Uccle. It's a stinkin cute chicken.
