What kind of rooster do I have?

[salemskies]

I got this guy a couple of months ago and I have no idea what he is. He's very nice and not aggressive at all.

He definitely gets down to business with the girls-I've already hatched 3 of his chickies

Looks like some type of Cochin... or a Cochin cross. Possibly a Silke/Cochin cross.

Maybe Partridge Cochin crossed with something that has that type of comb. My Cochin roo has a large single comb. He's pretty!

He looks built like a Cochin however I see some crested breed in him. Maybe Silkie? Probably not directly bred from a Silkie, but has some in him.

VERY PRETTY

Those are some crazy spurs he's got.

Beautiful bird!

Yes, his spurs are waaay long! I couldn't believe it when I saw them. The previous owner did mention him having some silkie in him I just couldn't figure out where. Then I had a silkie and noticed they had similar combs. He's very colorful and vocal (at all hours!) I'm curious to see how my chickies look when they're more mature. I have EE crossed with him and I see that they have his feathered feet. There's also another mix I have but I'm not sure what the egg was. I was brown so it could have been australorp, rir, barred rock...should be interesting!

I'm going to start another batch on Saturday, yay!

He is a nice bird but his spurs are HUGE

Partridge Cochin X silkie. First thing that came to mind when I saw him.
