What breed is this boy?

[jade eastwood]

I have had this rooster since he was a few days old. When I got him they told me he was a Sussex, I didn’t know much about chicken breeds at the time at all and so I didn’t even know what a Sussex looked like. Compared to other Sussex chickens I have seen, they look nothing like my boy, Cheese. I’ll add some photos of when he was little and some of him now so let me know if you think he truly is a Sussex.

Probably blue Orpington or blue Australorp.

Are the soles of his feet white or yellow?

He looks a lot like my Blue Australorp.

I agree with the others above my post, looks like a Blue Australorp

They do look very similar! I’ll check in the morning as he’s asleep now. Thanks!

Thanks! Sounds like that might be it

Probably blue Orpington or blue Australorp.
