What breed is this rooster

I see that they don't have good photos on their website.

What did you order? I'm suspecting him of being a possible Olive Egger, but I wouldn't rule out a poorly-marked, "hatchery quality" Barnvelder.

I ordered BO, Buckeyes, Blue Rock, GLW, Partridge Rock and RIBlue. And they gave me an extra. I was supposed to have Buckey and BO cockerels I think the black one is a RIBlue. The big roo is still a mystery. Do any match anything I ordered. Thanks

this rooster is way bigger than any hen I have and bigger than my buckeye rooster. I don't think it's a olive egger either

Well, that explains it being male. lol

Is this the hatchery?

He has willow legs, which implies a cross to me. I see they have "Meat Makers" and Jersey Giants. Jersey Giants go into their Meat Makers so that could explain the size and the leg color.

Yes that's the one. I'm going to try and contact them and see if they know. He is beautiful a little clumsy and shy but eats out of my hand

It's not ringing a bell for me off that list.

He's so beautiful I just wish he was a breed not a mixed up one

Why?

Why?

So I could raise baby chicks and have a breed I knew what they were

That makes sense.

Mixed breed chicks can be cute, healthy, and grow up to be productive chickens-- but you can't always predict what traits they will have, and I do agree that it's nice to know what kind of chicks you are likely to get.
