What gene does my rooster carry?

I love Brahmas and Brahma crosses. Wish I still had my Blue Orp x Buff Brahma hen, Glenda. Great broody, pretty girl. Looked exactly like a black Brahma, good pea comb, too. This was one of Glenda's brothers, big guy he was. His mother was my Buff Brahma hen, Caroline, who is rapidly approaching ten years old. Can't remember who had him, someone I sent eggs to years ago. This was their picture they sent to me.

 
Really upset. Yesterday when I went to feed scraps, this rooster and a young black pullet didn't come. They weren't then when I went to put them up last night and not there this morning either. Think something got them. They free range during the day so the possibilities are endless. I haven't seen any feathers or other signs. We do have hawks and a couple of Labs that patrol the hood on occasion.

Loved that rooster. Glad I've got some of his babies in the 'bator. Should hatch next week.
