What kind of bantam rooster?

[SarahInAlaska]

He's awful pretty! About 6 months old.

I just picked him up today.

He is a very attractive silky cross. He will produce daughters that will be good broodies.

I have a blue silkie who is one broody lady. I thought I might try them together but I've never bred birds together. She also hasn't laid a single egg in the last month. I've had her in with chicks though and she seems more than happy to focus on them.

He was free too so I figure I don't have much to lose as long as he isn't too terribly loud. I got him as a meat bird but didn't know what kind I was getting and now in just not sure. He's far too pretty to just toss in a pot just yet!
