what breed?

[braxide]

i made a post a bit ago about this little guy and i think it’s pretty clear it is a mix however does anyone have any idea with what? its feathers have changed quite a bit since that post. it’s gurenteeed part silkie it has the skin color and extra toes and feathers on feet. but it’s pattern is strange and it has a fairly big comb (which also makes me think it’s a rooster?) and it hardly has a puff on top and also just has a strange pattern.any ideas?

Do you know any of the possible breeds it could be mixed with? I’m inclined to say it’s a cockerel, depending on age.

i feel like the person mentioned seramas when i was buying the birds but i don’t remember exactly what was said or the context. when i was there they mainly just had the silkies and some brown black laced birds of some kind that were smaller (not sure if those were the “seramas” or something else, but those were the only birds i happened to see i’m sure there may have been others) they mainly had ducks and geese which we actually went for ducks and ended up with the silkies too. photos of serama silkies online don’t seem to match so i’m at a loss. it’s also probbaly around 5 weeks.

He could be a Serama, especially if the other birds were smaller than Silkies. Could the laced birds have been Barnevelders? I think they come in bantam size, and that might fit his coloring better.

hmm it’s possible, that does look similar in coloring.

So far it is looking like a male.
Looks like a mixed breed, and it's hard to really know what he's mixed with.

You can update in a few more weeks, once he’s grown his adult feathers in more, and it may be easier to tell.

I think it’s a cockerel. He’s a cute little mixed breed.

Definitely a cockerel.
