What Breed Is This Rooster?

[ChickenRaiser95]

What breed is this rescue rooster? He is a bantam. I would appreciate any ideas on his breed, or if he looks like a mix, what breeds are mixed?
Thank you!


He has feathered legs, yellow feet, a yellow beak, and long yellow spurs. Underneath his wattles he has no feathers, like a buckeye for example. His tail seems to go out a little too much to match a brahma. He seems too bright for a buckeye too. He is very sweet and friendly, even though he seems like an old rooster. He has a large red peacomb, red earlobes, and red wattles. And again, his legs are feathered. He is a bantam.

Wonder if he is something like a Nankin / Brahma cross?

I do think he has some Brahma in him. The color matches for a Nankin, but there wouldn't be any in my area. It is such an ornamental breed. Thank you for the opinion.

ideas please?

The only other thing I could come up with was Cochin/Brahma, but would have thought he'd have more foot feathering ... can't think of many places he could have gotten the peacomb from besides Brahma.

Let me know what you think. I hope he is a brahma. I have compared my rooster to other pics I have found, and he nearly matches. I have compiled the pics so others can compare. I only own the photo of my rooster.
