Gentle roo, what breed?

This is buddy, hes about 5 or 6 years old. Very gentle, has never had any kids other than the ones we gave to him from winco. He likes dancing for his girls but for some reason has never tried to mate with them? Usually they walk away and he just lets them, unlike our old roo who would just grab him (wasnt very nice cus it spooked them and pulled feathers) Anyways, as u can see hes very sweet and gentle. His hen turnip actually has a leg disability, thats why shes with him cus hes so nice. He was fully light blonde as a chick and grew into a orange color. Very fluffy, i will attach a pic of his sister (RIP) i believe we got them from winco. Sorry i like to talk about my chickens alot!!! Any ideas on what he could be?? (pic is his sister, vid is him)

Winco sells live chickens? Who knew?

The hen has feathered legs, so I am guessing she is a red sex link mixed with something else. The rooster is probably the same. Both could be some new kind of hybrid.

Thank you, i assumed hes some kind of barnyard mix but i saw a video of a guy who also had 6 very friendly roosters that looked just like buddy, so it made me curious.

You can find chicks at winco or wilco... im always forgetting what one is the farm store lol. They sell them during spring through fall i believe, and are marked by breeds (sometimes sexed too!) they have alot of varity from what ive gotten! Turkeys, rabbits, maybe quail if im correct too.

Wilco makes sense. We don't have them here as far as I know, but Winco is a grocery store where I live. That's why is was surprised.

Looks like Buff Orpington. The breed is very docile. I had very take Gold Laced Wyandot roosters. And my current rooster was a black ster hybrid (cross between Barred Rock and Rhode Island Red) so he is sterile. He is a BIG beautiful boy.

Should had said Black Star. Here are pictures of my Gold Laced Wyandotte rooster and the Black Star rooster:
