What Breed is this cute cockeral?

I'd say he's more like a hatchery quality New Hampshire red, though that dark fluff under the tail is wrong
Brown Leghorn roosters (even hatchery quality) are gold duckwing pattern: black breasted, with red hackles and saddle
and Much lighter built with a bigger tail and comb.

There are some meat crossbreeds that color but MM doesn't handle them

x2! My thoughts exactly
 
I have an update! McMurray is claiming is a full bred Turken (naked neck). That very rarely they will come out full feathered, they usually try not to send them out but apparently this little guy slipped through. That is the one breed I never would have guessed. I'm going to have to go home and compare him to my Turkens now!



Not sure sorry, but nice Turken in the background.

THANKS! I'm proud of him. :)
