what breed is my rooster???

[Carols Clucks]

Your Rooster looks similar to my Mom's

But I think ours is an Ameraucana Mix, note the different comb, greenish legs and some muff. He is also big and heavy, so what ever he is mixed with was also big-he is very sweet! And expects to be picked up. He is a great rooster, you can turn your back and sit on the ground and never worry about a surprise rooster attack.

He has a buttercup comb so I would guess, if he isn't purebred, he's carrying Sicilian Buttercup in there somewhere...

The rooster has been passed along a number of owners and I didn't take much notice of what he was except he was very good looking and good natured ( and hardly crows!!). I presently only have a few hybrid hens with him. i am more interested in the heritage brees and so purchased some purebred welsummer eggs from south. (which i received in the mail) I filled the space in my incubator with some eggs from my chookpen.
A chicken which hatched out of one of my hybrid eggs looks nearly identical to the welsummer purebred chicks except not quite so red in color. The pic of the chic from my rooster and hybrid is attached. So this got me investigating what he may be. I thought originally a RIR but realise that he is not. Any thought would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Sorry just worked out how to put the pics on properly.

I am pretty sure he is a Welsummer mix. He has great colors but is not a Purebred.

Yeah that looks like a bantam welsummer mix I have two and some bantam welsummer chicks and they look almost identical. Maybe im wrong but love your rooster.

He doesnt have a long neck so it looks like a bantam from the picture
