He looks like a NH red in color, but his tail is white?

I'm not sure either

Could be a cross between NH, or RIR with something else

Looks like a NHR X RSL

Or ... it might have some Wyandotte in there somewhere to explain the Rose Comb.

I didn't know the comb was so important. I'll look tomorrow and get a closer pic of him. I don't even know.

Thanx for helping, all! I love this guy - he's very sweet to the hens and non-aggressive towards us. He does crow a lot tho. He also has a beautiful head of long, red, flowing hair.

Looks like a single comb to me. I noticed that the hen has a blue tail, so if they're related, I'd assume that he would be carrying 2 blue genes, which is where the white (splash) tail comes from.
