With that big rose comb. I believe that the cock only has some gamefowl blood in him at best. The hen is a nice looking game hen. It is difficult to tell her actual linage though. Quite a few different lines produce wheaten hens with white legs.

The original owner had a lot of pure bread gamefouls and was crossing them. Im looking for characteristics to try an identify it, in my opinion I think it might be Kelso, roundhead, or hatch. Might even be crossed.
 
I don't think that is a rose comb. It looks like the result of parents with single and pea combs, sort of intermediate between the two.

One important thing about game fowl is stance, so a photo or a few photos of the rooster standing on his own would help.

As to strain or type of game fowl, it is difficult to determine. Your best bet would be getting that information from the breeder. But the folks in the American game fowl thread would be the best to ask. I would post in there if I was you.

You could be correct with any of those lines. She is definitely an American type gamefowl. I am not seeing any obvious signs of oriental blood. Like JedJackson said. Some better pictures of the cock bird would help tremendously.
 
The hen looks like either an aseel or a cubalaya but she might be a cross the cockerel looks like a mix with possibly some rose comb bantam
The breeder didnt mention any cubalaya, cockerel. But he did mention asil, kelso, sweater, hatch and roundhead.
