    Backyard Brahmas!!

    I am not an expert but I would say the first is a pullet, the second cockerel purely on the difference in feathering, the first appearing to have way more feathers. Also the patterning on the first is correct for a female the second one doesn't really have enough feathers to say much about the...

    Do you disagree that there is some buff coloring showing through or is this something you see occasionally with darks, I have not seen that before.

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    I would agree the cock is probably a dark Brahma. If I am seeing it correctly that the hem has some brown/tanish coloring then I would assume she is some kind of mix, a dark hen should be silver based with black penciling so I am guessing she is mixed possibly with a buff brahma, but I am no...

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    I would guess pullet from the wings the last rooster I raised from day old I don't remember it having such a distinct pattern on its wings(that could change with age). My roosters wings had very few patterned wings feather when they came in they were mostly black.

    Yeah I was unsure but I seem to remember at a very young age compared to other breeds or even the same breed different colors, that the rooster is so distinctively different it was pretty easy to tell.

    These are my dark brahma's two hens and cockerel, they are awesome birds very docile. They follow me around when feeding and have no problem allowing me to pick them up.

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    MY Brahmas were already a week old when i read it so that is when i did, I don't think age really matters because I imagine this is something they would maintain as they grow. I have done it three times with each and always get the same result so I hope it is accurate.

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    In another group I follow a lady said that she has had about a 94% accuracy by flipping them(not brahma specific) on there backs, if they pull their legs in they are a pullet, if one or both legs are held out away from the body (more aggressive posture) rooster. again not specific but she has...

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    believe those are lights but in my limited experience, our light hens have always been almost completely yellow and the roosters(we have only had two) both had the black coloring on their backs and heads.

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    Thank you but for right now I am not interested. I love the "non traditional" color Brahmas but we Ave them in part for my daughter to be able to show them. I will keep you in mind if we decide to get a couple.
