What breed, Rescue roo

[BarnwoodCoop]

Those spurs could do with a bit of attention. They are rather long.
That is one of the most handsome roosters I've seen in a long time.
Who would dump a rooster full stop, but especially one like that?
The colour is looking more like a Bielefelder, but Gold Cuckoo Maran is a great guess, I wouldn't have known the difference. Both breeds are absolutely beautiful.

By removing/shaving down his spurs, wouldn’t that leave him defenseless against predators?

Just a filing and a cleaning would be fine, like a pedicure.

Personally i tgibj the spurs are fine, especially since they're sticking out and not curved. But they may be more of a danger to people and hens

He almost looks like a golden cuckoo Maran X Bielefelder, but i think that might be unlikely. He has the overall shape and comb and legs of a golden cuckoo Maran, while his color looks like a mix of the two.

From what i’ve researched and seen, this suggestion seems like a very strong contender!

His spurs look like toenails if you go hiking in flip flops, a spuricure would do him wonders. Just clean off any dirt and grime and file down the end a bit to make it less sharp.

Recently we rescued this boy, he’s about 7yrs old, as he was dumped on a construction site previously, we have no idea what breed he is. It’s not extremely important, we’re just curious as to breed-health related problems he could have and what chicks would be a mix of lolView attachment 2246277View attachment 2246279

What a gorgeous guy! He belongs in a calendar.
