I got this from a lady this weekend.

She was just giving him away. She said he was a "rarer breed " rooster but she did not have any hens for him.

Any suggestions on what he is?

Awesome. Thank you.

Now off to find him some hens.

Dont take my word though, look at pictures and wait for some experts!
 
I wonder if since he is younger he has not fully feather/ watlled up for what every it is called.

Just found a 22 page thread on the 2 different types mentioned... Looks like I have some reading to do :)

But thank you anyways for both suggestions :) It gave me a place to start :)
 
His comb looks like a carnation (king) comb, and the only chicken I have heard of with that is a Penedesenca, but I don't think that they any top notch (puff on top of the head).
 
He's a mutt. That isn't a Carnation comb, it's a single x v x single again.

I have a Polish cross with an identical comb, and several other Polish crosses with identical color.


His head, comb, leg color, body color, and body type do not match any purebred breed.
