What breed is this guy that was dumped at my house?

I perceive it more as a very dirty white with a lot of yellow leakage.

Wouldn't be the first time my eyes have failed me, though

You are exactly right! I’ve added better pictures to capture the leg feathering and the yellowing.

The white rooster in the pictures was sadly dumped off at my house last night/this morning sometime. He seems docile enough that I’ll try to keep him for now and see how it goes. Can anyone guess an approximate age (I’m guessing a year or 2 as his spurs are slightly bigger and pointier than my 1 year old roos) or give me a breed? I was thinking the obvious, white leghorn, but his legs are pretty whitish compared to what I’ve seen online. I don’t have experience with the breed though so maybe that’s normal? Thanks for any help!

Better pictures! Does not look like a leghorn I should of thought and looked more closely first!

Too me I see some possible feet feathers?

Barnyard Mix would be my guess. Your other rooster in the second picture is gorgeous... reminds me of one that I had about 25 years ago. Thanks for the memories as he was the prettiest and best rooster that I have ever had.

Thank you and you’re very welcome. I’m glad you enjoyed the photo. He was supposed to be a Salmon Faverolle from Meyer Hatchery but ended up being a Green Queen. He’s a sweet boy.
