What kind of chicken?

[DrCB]

What kind of chicken is my Bantam Rooster? He is white with light brown on his neck and his back.

Thanks,

Where'd you get him? He looks like an Old English Game Bantam, though I can't pinpoint the variety.

for a oeg the wattles are too big, for a dutch the wattles and comb fit but the tail is too pointed and the sattle feathers are not long enough....but how old is he?

He was given to me. I have no idea how old he is. I obtained him from someone else and they knew nothing about him. He was given to me along with a female that a chicken breeder told me was a Seebright. Unfortunately I had placed her in a temporary shelter - away from the rooster - and she got "taken" one night.

I now have 3 hens that I got from the breeder who identified the Seebright hen from a photo. I got my present 3 at 5 weeks old and they are now 15 weeks. They are in a coop with a run. The rooster I am inquiring about runs free. The breeder did not identify his photo, only to tell me he was a Bantam.

Dutch also have white earlobes.

If he was given to you, I'm guessing that he's just a bantam mix.

He looks a lot like a Red Pyle Old English Game batam, except instead of red saddle and hackle feathers, he has pale yellow feathers so he is probably a mixed breed with some Old English Game bantam in his genetics

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks everyone!

After receiving your replies I looked up Red Pyle Old English Game Bantams, and in looking through all the photos I found several that looked exactly like my rooster.

But whatever he is, he is definitely an interesting character! I'm glad I have him.
