Whst a beautiful big boy he is :love

Give it some time. Chewie might surprise you :)

This might make you feel better. This is one of my light Brahma cockerels when he was almost 5 wks.

These pics make me a little more confident you have pullets, but like I said you'll need to wait a few weeks before you can know for sure.

@big medicine You are needed :)

it's really too soon to tell. You should know in another 3 wks.

Pullets. My roos already had a great deal of red in their big combs and wattles by that age.

X2, looks like Easter Eggers to me.

My light brahmas are 10.5 wks old now. They are almost as big as my adult layers, though they are bigger than my game birds. The currently use the highest roost in their coop, which is about 3 feet high. My Brahmas are being raised for meat only, so I'm about to move them back to the tractor...

Cute! I love babies :)

I forgot about the wattles. I believe bumpercar is correct. She is likely just a bit slow feathering out. All chicks are different, which makes it a challenge to sex sometimes. :)

Hmmm. I'm still leaning towards cockerel. My L Brahma pullet feathered out much quicker than the boys, and she has no comb to speak of. Out of my 5 boys, they all have stumpy tails like that one, and only 3 of them have massive red combs already. The other 2 boys are developing slower. Of...

body looks like cockerel, but do you have a closeup of the comb?

Thank you!

Oh No!!! 2 of my TSC brahmas are showing signs of CRD. Swollen eyes with fluid dischard from eyes and nose. Loss of appetite, sneezing, etc. I quarantined one yesterday, and now ive got another sick bird this morning. The SLWs in the pen with them are also getting sick (they also came from...

I'm "free ranging" my Brahmas in a mobile tractor, so they always have access to fresh grass, but are protected from predators. And of course I let them out if I'm outside where I can watch them.

Gorgeous!! :love

My Brahmas are getting so big! They are about 9 wks old, and are 3 times the size of my wyandottes, whick are 7 wks. And there feathering is soo pretty!

That would be a good idea. Likely it would be best to get a puppy that you could train, unless you can easily get a hold of a mature dog already trained with chickens. I have cats, so I'm not much help here.

On a lighter note, here's some updated pics of my Brahmas. They are 7.5 wks old today. Definitely have 1 girl, and 5 boys.
