what breed is he?

Marans bred towards SOP should have feathered shanks, but that doesn't mean all do.

Looks like a Dorking to me, however Dorkings have 5 toes and are more of a greenish leg color

Marans have slate legs so it could be one. But do they have feathers on their feet?

Not necessarily. The French standard for Marans calls for feathered legs; the English standard calls for bare legs.

I was wondering! I never noticed feathers on their feet in pics before until I was looking at new pics last night. The feather colors are similar to Wellies, but the body shape, thickness of neck feathers are differn't and I forgot to look at leg color.
