Looking to confirm.. was sold as a Croad Langshan?? He looks like it from what I've researched so just trying to confirm. Thought? He's just stunning in person.

I'm sorry, he's a beauty, but he looks nothing like a Langshan. :(

Langshans are tall, single-combed birds with a distinctive U-shape.

My Ludwig, coming up on 20 weeks, is only hatchery-quality, but he's from Ideal and they supposedly have the Croad line.

I expect that quite a few breeds have gone into producing a blue-copper bird with feathered feet and a buttercup comb. Perhaps he's an olive-egger?

I do have an Olive Egger pullet but their coloring is so different but that would be the case with roo I guess? Still a bit of a newbie to all of the breeds.

Olive Eggers, like Easter Eggers, can look like anything.

I'm speculating based on the coloring and feathered feet, which *may* indicate Blue-Copper Marans heritage.
