A few months ago, a roo showed up at our house. We never found who he escaped from, so weve kept him. WHen he came to us, he was in the middle of growing back alot of feathers. I dont know if he was moulting or was relieved of them by some animal while making his way to us. EIther way, his new feathers have grown in beautifully and it got me wondering what breed he is.
Anyway, Ive asked everyone I can think of and so far the only ideas Ive gotten where Ameraucauna, Easter Egger and Cubalaya. I have some photos of him here -
http://community.webshots.com/album/529810847TQsBmS Hes the same size as my RIR roos and has bright yellow legs, no muff/beard or ear tufts. He has a pea comb and very small wattles. He also has white on his earlopes, not the feathers, but the skin.
I have an Ameraucauna hen who doesnt look anything like him. That coupled with what I know about the breed makes me thinkt hat hes not that. But what ever he is, I love him and think hes awfully pretty.
Anyone have any ideas?
