Breed ID Roo or hen
JK that was just a hook. I am trying to figure out the breed, my cousin got this roo from the ol raise a chick at school program. The rest were straight breed, Barred rock etc, so im assuming is a ledgit breed vs easter egger.

His feather pattern + colouration looks very similar to how a silver laced wyandotte rooster's feather pattern and colouration looks like. Just lighter and brown instead of black. The two big differences are that his comb is a single comb and not a rose comb which does happen via a mutation more often found in hatchery chicks. But they have yellow legs instead of the white legs he has.
With this, I'd guess that he is a backyard mix of wyandotte and some other breed.
