What breed is this rooster?

[SillyMissLily]

I adopted a small flock, 4 hens, a roo, and 3 of their offspring, from somebody who just did not have time for them anymore. Two hens are Rhode Island Red, the other two I was told Ameraucana, but I think Easter Eggers. I was also told the roo was Marans, but not so sure….

The fun part is the babies (all 3 hens) should be close to laying so egg color may help the final decision. For the moment these are the best pix I have. I will add pictures and info as I can.

Any guesses on breed of rooster?

Easter Egger/mutt

He looks pretty small, maybe a Phoenix mix

Looks like my deathlayer , rooster but his eyes are too light and his legs should be slate grey. maybe copper maran cross?

I think copper maran mutt?

Is it just me or does he have white ear lobes? That might indicate a white egg laying breed.

TheOddOneOut was correct, he’s some kind of EE/mutt. All 3 of his offspring lay pretty greenish blue eggs and 2 of them were out of a RIR hen. All three of them have white earlobes as well.
